    The Concrete Jungle!
    - On November 16, 2002 the dedication of our state of the art skate park was made. As most of you know, this park was built in partnership with Wayne County. They awarded us $300,000 to use toward its creation and the rest of the money was accumulated through fund-raisers and donations. It is now up and running and we can’t wait to see all the skate boarders in the area enjoying themselves! The park is designed for those who are just learning the ins and outs of skate boarding as well as the more experienced skate boarder.

    Friday Night Skate is here!    Come and enjoy the Concrete Jungle Friday Night Skate - complete with music - through the summer months on Friday from 9 p.m. until Midnight.
