SAUGERTIES SKATEPARK BECOMES REALITY

On May 31st Junior Skate Committee will be doing a car wash at the Simmons Plaza in Barclay Heights between the hours of 11:00am and 4pm. Just look for the Buff Boys holding up signs.

On June 22nd Saugerties Stewarts stores will be matching all public donations at both locations on Main St. and Rte. 212 so please get your donations in!!!!

The New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation has named the Town of Saugerties a recipient of a $100,000 matching grant toward the construction of a state of the art skate park facility at the nationally recognized Cantine Veterans' Memorial Complex.

The Town of Saugerties has dedicated 1 acre of the 127-acre recreational facility for the construction of the park, scheduled for completion in the fall of 2008. The planned skate park will provide a friendly and inviting environment for skating and biking enthusiasts, with an emphasis on safety.

Meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month in the small room of the Frank D. Greco Senior Center located on Market Street in Saugerties.

We are selling raffle tickets and tee shirts. For now both of these items can be purchased at Smith's Hardware (we will be sellling them at the Bike Shop as well- just not yet)

Forms for the "bricks" and "pavers": $50 & $100

John Kahn built a big skateboard - a VERY big skateboard. And it's been submitted to the Guinness Book of World Records for consideration as the world's largest skateboard.

These videos are of that skateboard one is the unveiling at Skateday which was held summer 2007 and the guy on the unicycle is world renowned tight rope walker Philip Pettit.
