Switch Go Skateboarding Day 905

A few years back, lets just say the mid-90's for arguments sake, I remember working at a now defunct shop in Pickering and having numerous conversations about the new park that was supposed to be built behind the Pickering Rec Complex. Sure there's a skate park in every town these days but this was long before that and this was one of the few outdoor parks even proposed. A lot of people contributed, like local legend Donnie Cameron. So it was more than disappointing to learn the park had been "condensed" from the initial drawings with most obtacles being downsized. Maybe its time to get the ball rolling with a new park in Pickering thats more up to date. I'll leave that with you, but remember nothing gets the point across more than hundreds of people skating the park, enjoying free food and random high fives. Join us for the Switch Go Skateboarding Day at the Pickering Park. More details
