Skaters: Camp Hill Pennsylvania is planning to ban skateboarding!!!
It was in the Harrisburg Patriot newspaper today, Thursday, March 15, Local and State section.
They are drafting an anti-skateboarding ordinance. It also says that nearby towns are doing the same.
Skateboarders need to do something. An anti-skateboarding law is a strike at all skateboarders.
The town of Camp Hill will have another meeting in April to decide if they should advertise it for a final vote.
They did mention the idea that they build a skatepark but it was
brushed off saying kids wouldnt use it because of saftey regulations.
Something needs to be done!!!
Mo matter where you live you can help!
Call the town of Camp Hill at (717) 737-3456 or E-mail them at
camphillmanager@comcast.net and tell them how you feel about this!
