We are taking a moment to toot our own horn to celebrate a social media milestone. The main ingredients in building a contemporary concrete skatepark are Community, Location, and Funding. Today we are celebrating community.
Following a pretty weather-event-ful last couple of weeks, we can finally say: The Middlebury Mini is finished and ready to ride/skate! Join us for a grand opening celebration on August 6th to help us thank our partners and volunteers.
Thanks to a $5,000 grant from the Vermont Community Foundation, the Middlebury Skatepark Project will be building a mini-ramp, or small half pipe, next to the pool and bike pump track in Recreation Park.
Flowers, rain, skatepark news! It must be spring! The Addison Independent recently ran an article covering what the Middlebury Skatepark Project has been up to over the winter. Spoiler alert: it’s a lot!
Thanks to the site analysis work of Middlebury student Clark O’Bryan, we’ve pin-pointed an amazing potential location in Recreation Park, and have even received an initial “thumbs-up” from the Parks and Recreation Department!
