Gold River Needs A Skatepark!

The facebook site of the same name has been going for almost a year, but things are finally moving on making this dream a reality. There is a meeting Wednesday night, July 13th at 7pm at the Jack Christensen Centre for anyone interested in helping to make this happen.

The project will take a lot of fundraising and that means lots of volunteers! So come on kids, get your parents out there and don’t be afraid to bring some of your friends who don’t skate, or bike, or board. There’s something for everyone and all ideas are welcome!
