The skatepark is open!

The skatepark has been open for about 2 weeks now, sorry for the delay. (Can’t stop skating the new park)

If you need direction the physical address of the skatepark is 850 Snakeriver Ave, Lewiston, ID 83501.

The VSA also recommends that young children should have at least 2 weeks (everyday practice) experience on their skateboard before they come to the skatepark. Also they should wear wrist guards and a helmet. Broken wrists are the most common injury on a skateboard and most incidences happen in the first 2 weeks of riding. They should also stay in the upper bowl and out of the street section when its busy.

Grindline Coming August 24th!!

Grindline will be here at the end of the month to start construction on our new skatepark. We still have some money to raise including an extra $30,000 to add a much needed advanced/intermediate bowl. Trust me kids will be getting so good so fast they will need it in a few month of riding the new park. This picture includes all the changes plus the new bowl, this park is going to be amazing! If you want to make a donation to the skatepark send a check to p.o. box 1541 Lewiston, Id. Also make sure to add us on facebook under the name Valley Skatepark Association.

Thanks

Art Show Reception

Last night was our opening reception for "CARVE" which will become our annual art show to raise money for the new park. It was a huge success and we thank everyone who came out to support us. It's still open and will be open for another 2 weeks, so if you didn't get a chance to come last night, make sure you check it out. You can bid on many of the boards down there and buy raffle tickets to win one of 2 skateboards donated by Quins and Sports Authority.

LOGO

The Valley Skatepark Association (VSA) needs a logo!  We need something black and white, simple, and something that can easily be drawn.  Send us your ideas and maybe your design will be the next logo!
