Description: This park is the product of 15 months of fundraising and community organization that began in September 1996 with a Juneau/Douglas High School Phoenix Program project and is culminating with the construction of a 7500 square foot facility for skateboarding and in-line skating. Fundraising and organizing is ongoing through the "Skate Board" an advisory board to the Parks and Recreation Department. This spring and summer the site will be landscaped and an art/painting project will be organized.
