Whether you are a grom or a geezer hitting the skate park on a summer day cannot be beat. Not sure if you are a grom, geezer or somewhere in between? Check out the recent post on CALGARY IS AWSOME as they have a skill testing question that will help you figure it out.

Westside Rec Centre is hosting Skatefest at their park on August 11th. Check the poster for details:
