The Twin Lakes Park Commission is working with a local family to raise funds to undertake a complete renovation the Skateboard Park at Legion Park. The Park Commission has committed to match up to $12,500 against funds raised privately from the public. A number of small fund raisers have taken place that have netted a few thousand dollars but more work is needed.
More information on the project and the fund raising effort, including concept pictures of the future skatepark, is found on Facebook.  A major effort to receive a $25,000 grant through the Pepsi Refresh Project fell short of the mark this past fall. It is hoped that our Skatepark Renovation will again compete for votes with other projects across the country. When the time comes again, anyone can log on to the Pepsi site and vote up to five times a day. Click here for more information on how the Pepsi Refresh Project works.
