Thanks to everyone who came out to last night’s skatepark open house at Cardel Theatre. It was the first of three, so please try to make it to one of the other open houses.
If you didn’t make it, these two news stories will give you a better idea of what you missed:
Dalhousie Skate Church will be closed this week to encourage everyone to attend the skatepark open houses.
Open House Schedule:
-Tuesday, January 28: Cardel Theatre – 180 Quarry Park Blvd S.E.
-Wednesday, January 29: Edgemont Community Association – 33 Edgevalley Circle N.W.
-Thursday, January 30: Southland Leisure Centre – 2000 Southland Dr. S.W.
We’re happy to let you know that the City of Calgary is holding three open houses at the end of January to provide information and see if the public supports potential skatepark sites. Please note: these are potential sites only and no approvals or decisions regarding any site have been made.
