WhistlerBlackcomb Foundation Grant Update
In April 2006, the WSA applied for, and was given, a $10,000 grant from the Whistler/Blackcomb Foundation. This money will be used to fix up and complete the Creekside Underground Skatepark. Phase one of the project will be to resurface the existing mini-ramps with Skatelite, which is a plastic-based product that both skates well and will be able to stand up to the abuse that ramp sees. Once that is completed, we will use the remaining money to build a street-style course in the rest of the “room”.
We are currently seeking an organization that can help us provide the W/B Foundation with a tax receipt, as we do not currently have that ability.
We would like to take this opportunity to again thank the W/B Foundation for their generosity, as well as their continued support of positive, community-based project such as this.
Pressure washing completed. On Sunday July 17th we were glad to have the complete skatepark in the Creekside Underground Pressure washed. A thanks goes out to Westbeach and Kevin from Pinnacle Power Sweeping.
