HUGE shout out to everyone who has been able to make it out to the skatepark this season. Together we added tons of new features and refurbished some older ones. We slammed, slappy'd, and slashed all summer, ensuring that our space will be saved for future generations.

HEADS UP: This week, the skatepark committee will be announcing specifics for our upcoming "skate-deck art project". Each decked-out deck will be auctioned off at an art show later this year (date tbd). SO, if anyone knows of local artists who might be interested/supportive of our cause, please SHARE THIS POST.
DECKS WILL BE PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE🎨.

"A content analysis of 35 skateboarders' survey responses revealed the existence of four benefits, namely, establishing new and reconnecting with old friendships; bonding to a friendship group, gaining peer respect and status; and increased opportunities to interact with people. Collectively, these benefits expanded the skateboarders' social horizons by providing increased opportunities to gain community recognition and acceptance."

Greetings Manchester Skatepark Supporters!

The skatepark is getting a lot of use this summer and the ramps are in need of some TLC, so we're having a *WORK DAY* to spruce things up a bit. Let's all give the park a little love while we work towards building a new park. We'll be cutting some plywood and sheet metal, resetting a bunch of screws, and even doing a bit of painting! Please feel free bringing any tools you feel comfortable using, an extra paintbrush, or simply your helping hands.

**If you have extra galvanized screws, plywood, or dark green paint, these resources are greatly appreciated. Should anyone have a spare sheet of skatelite, the halfpipe will give you lots of love by days end! If anyone can bring a BBQ:), we'll be happy to supply hamburgers, veggie burgers, and hot dogs. And of course, be sure to bring lots of water/beverages, we'll make it a party!

Unless it rains, we hope to see you there!

***WHERE: Manchester skatepark (adjacent to the new poolhouse)

***WHEN: Sunday, July 12th, beginning @ 9am***

Hey everyone! We’ve got a preliminary sketch of the skatepark and we need your feedback! Who Skates Skateparks has used every bit of the 20,000 square feet the Town of Manchester has allocated for the park in this concept and filled it with great features and hang out space. It’s designed so it can be built in phases as funds are raised. The sooner you give us your input on this first look design, the sooner we can move to CAD drawings! Let’s get this show on the road! Comment and share away!!!

Description of the proposed build phases are as follows:
Phase 1: Mixed tech/tranny
Phase 2: Tech
Phase 3: Flow/moonscape
Phase 4: Bowl zone
