- Why build a skate park for skateboarding and in-line skating?
- Kids need a safe and fun place to skateboard and in-line skate. The skatepark we have now in Lewiston is old and poorly designed. The new skatepark will also give skateboarders a better place to skateboard than out in front of local business, something the the present park does not do. The new skatepark will be set in a safe park-like setting suitable for both skaters and spectators. We want everyone to have fun - parents, children, and skaters!
- How much will it cost?
- Projected cost for development of a 10,000 square foot skate park is about $250,000.
- Who’s going to pay for it?
- Funds for the new skatepark will be raised in a variety of ways. Local skaters will organize fundraising events like skate competitions, car washes, booths at events such as the Dogwood Festival, rummage sales, etc. Donations from businesses and other individuals will also fund the park.
- How can I help?
- There are plenty of opportunities to help out! You can volunteer at events like car washes, skate competitions, etc., or donate time and money to the building of the park. We need all the help we can get and welcome anyone wanting to get involved!
