How do we address this NEED?
|
In August of this year, a committee was formed, comprised of interested individuals in addressing the needs of skateboarders, as well as providing for recreational improvements in the South End. |
|
Specifically, the two goals of the committee were to: |
1.) Develop a skate park facility
2.) Reconstruct the deteriorated basketball courts at the Grove Street Playground
|
A committee set up an account for fundraising purposes and is working as "THE SOUTH END PARK ASSOCIATION" |
The work of the committee has identified or are in the process of identifying several areas of research which include the following:
|
Confirming the level of support (skaters & the community) | |
|
Identifying a location | |
|
Determining the type of facility | |
|
Determining the type of equipment | |
|
Preparing a budget | |
|
Liability | |
|
Operational issues |
