WCBN Interview

Yesterday, Trevor and I were interviewed on WCBN 88.3 FM's Interactive Technologies show, hosted by veteran skater Pan.

Trevor did a great job, while I suffered through my cold (I was just happy to suppress most of my coughs). We covered a lot of basic information (e.g. "What is a skatepark") but I think we got the right message out for the general public.

This was also the debut of the public service announcement Trevor, Wes, Julia, Kylah, and Kee put together - check the "Mus… Continue

Skatepark locations

Trevor and I met with Parks staff on Thursday, Jan 10 to continue discussing possible locations. We've got some in mind now, with Vets, Buhr, and Southeast Area parks as our top contenders. There's more discussion of this over on the forum, and be sure to check out our page of Possible Locations for more.

Dec 18, 2007 PAC meeting minutes

Hopefully Trevor will put up the agenda we had for the meeting - we spent a lot of time answering all the questions they had for us from the last meeting, including a show of support (almost 1000 signatures from our paper and online petition, and a full house in City Chambers for the meeting).

Here's a quick summary of the PAC's responses, paraphrased, and recounted from the squirrely notes I scribbled down at the podium. Hopefully we'll also get the video of the meeting up also.…

Hey dugsong~ Thanks! I'm not a skater. Always wanted to be. I even made the ever popular board on roller skates model when I was a kid. I love watching you guys and think it would be FAB if there was a skate park! I also think you guys deserve it! Been meaning to get involved. I want to start attending the council meetings. Last night's was a bit far out. I got rid of my car and depend on my moped. Since I'm at Packard and Platt, Sequoia was a bit further out than I was in the mood for. The next one's @ 7 on the 7th? City Hall? Thanks again!

Hey also can you add a Footprints banner as one of our supporters. Eric, the Manager of both Launch and Footprints pays for the Pizzas and sometime sodas on our Street Team days.
Thanks!
