Re: Skateboard and Bike park

Like I have mentioned before the youth in the community have been promised a skate park for many years. In the past, the few that were helping quit trying to pursue the project. As a youth I would no longer believe continued talk until I saw something in motion. I don't blame the youth for that. I b...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

I would like to thank those vendors that came out and set up for the Skate and bike park open house today. It did not go well at all. Two couples showed up and one couple was a friend of one of the vendors. I am very disappointed. I am disappointed that some local businesses refused to post the flye...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

My personal feeling is that for many years this idea has been talked about in this town. It seems like the idea has gotten old to some of the skaters and bikers because they were excited when this was brought up four or five years ago and then the issue was dropped. So as I have personally spoken to...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

The youth are invited to every meeting. I post flyers in the middle school and high school and have both schools announce the meeting on the morning of that day. They don't care so much about where the park is. They are just tired of being chased off of every sidewalk and parking lot in town and not...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

All options are open at this time. I agree that if something is going to be done it needs to be done right. When it is done right it will last a lot longer than if we got a couple volunteers to build something. Once again the biggest hold up is a location. After we obtain a location there are many g...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

Sorry about not responding. I don't have the information at this time. I was going to bring up what you said at the next meeting. G & R's name has come up in discussion if we got a place that needed some demo. My understanding is that G & R are looking for ways to restore the building not te...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

Shea field is tied up legally right now and it is used for teener league baseball practice or some type of Jr league practice. The "Big Yank" building can be bought for $400K I am told. We are looking into the abandoned church across the street from sheets between the Methodist church and ...

Re: Skateboard and Bike park

I see not many people have anything to say about the proposed skate and bike park in Tyrone. There are so many businesses in town that complain or call the police about the youth in this town skating or biking on their property. We sent out about 150 letters asking for businesses in this town to don...
