ATHENS
My brother and I showed up for our first time to the Athens Skate Park and were blown away to find they were having a skate competition complete with live music from local bands the D-Rays and Weird Science.

West Virginia
"There are people who don't like the idea of skateparks." -public skatepark develpoment guide
What I need are skaters who can help me with the organization of the Blackwater Skatepark. I envision it being along the river in Davis, and therefor giving it the name of Blackwater. Any skaters interested can email me at jmcshredder@gmail.com There will be a skatepark in Tucker County, West Virginia one day, more specifically, in Davis, and it is up to us to do it. We may encounter those who oppose the idea of such a thing in their town, but the kids need this. The kids need a good place to gather and skateboard. We all need a skatepark. The Canaan Valley State Park has som pre-fab ramps; "its a new park but it lacks the park part.Its ramps are new but its set up sucks it was supposed to be built by skaters but you can tell they just set it all out in no order. I usally dont like skatewave ramps but the ramps there make them look awesome. If you have skated the stairsets nearby already and are mega bored check it out for yourself." A review from Concrete Disciples done by a skater who found the only skatepark in Tucker County. Even Parsons is supposed to be building one, with grant money. A concrete pad will be poured, and more pre-fab ramps? Maybe. City Council has agreed to give $25,000 to the new skatepark, and they hope for $50,000 for a water conservation grant. They are saying it will take only six weeks to complete when started. It will have a solid concrete riding surface and obstacles, and thats all I know. I do not think Jason Myers of Parsons wants a good skatepark, simply something to appease the urge to have one. We can do something more up in Davis. A top of the line all concrete park that competes with those around the country.
See ya later.
