Tony Kettel Skate Gardens/ Palouse Skatepark, Inc.


 

About

Palouse Skatepark, Inc. shall exist as a charitable, non-profit entity to promote skateboarding, skating, and non-motorized scooter use and recreational space. This mission shall include, but is not limited to, the creation of a skatepark that is free and open to the public; an area dedicated to providing a positive space for physical activity and self-expression for both young and old. Palouse Skatepark, Inc. will engage in fundraising activities to support the skatepark facility and the creation of public park and garden space adjacent to it. The corporation shall oversee the building and operation of the skatepark, establish rules for its use, and provide upkeep as needed. Special events, including skate competitions and demos, skate clinics, and other activities at the park, will be overseen by Palouse Skatepark, Inc. Ensuring the successful construction and maintenance of skatepark space will be the initial goal of the corporation. However, Palouse Skatepark, Inc, may also engage in additional events and purposes that encourage skateboarding, skating, and non-motorized scooter use and related forms of artistic expression that augment the park space and the well-being of the general skate community. Students: Roughly 17,000 square feet of space is located above the Palouse Skate Park, and this location will be used primarily as garden space. The Garden Transformation Team, headed by Nicole Flansburg and Marie Dymkoski, currently has 26 community members and is gaining by the week. Marie and I are looking for people who are willing to put in some labor to help clear debris from the garden site via raking, pulling weeds, clearing our branches and fallen limbs and loading up onto trucks to be hauled away from site. Eventually, there will be opportunities for planting a beautiful garden space! Visit www.palouseskatepark.com/gardens to see the "before" and read more about the preliminary vision for this space...butterfly gardens, public art elements, themed garden "rooms" and nature blinds, etc...very exciting!
