i own a local skateboard/snowboard shop and this would be a great addition to the city!! Let me k ow if we can help in any way!
This would ultimately be the best thing for the youth in the community of Springfield. Keep them out of the streets and in a clean skatepark that will be supported and respected by the skateboarding community.
make it big not just a small skate park with a few obsicals that would be lame put in a bowl and make sure its concrete not that wood crap like in chicopee and west springfield that would be lame oh also no scooters aloud.
I'm currently in the Marine Corps and stationed in the Mojave Desert and even this forgotten stretch of desert has 2 free outdoor skateparks.
Instead of putting skate stoppers everywhere, and forcing skateboarders to either break laws or stop what they love to do, Springfield shouls
West Springfield received a skate park through donations and the young males love using it. The area is small but is a great draw. My motto for teens is keep them busy and keep them tired. This is a fantastic idea to burn off some energy. My suggestion is to build it somewhere they will be able to show off their skills, getting positive feedback for their ability to stick with the sport and do well, and securing the space under ramps so they don't become forts and private hangouts.
This would be so beneficial to the community

skateboarding has kept me from joining local gangs and trying stuff like PCP. so imagine the positivity a skatepark could bring to our community. instead of seeing that one of my friends got killed due to gang violence, i wanna see some frontside inverts!!!
