THE OUTBACK - Empire Skatepark
Empire skatepark opened in 2012. It is essex's only 100% skater owned and run park. We have spent the last 3 and a half years transforming the back yard of the skatepark into a DIY bowl with full pool coping. It has been massive project from the get go and built by the hands local skateboarders and staff. Its almost hard to believe we are at this stage as all transitions are poured, ranging from 8ft all the way down to 2ft transitions. We are looking with some help with the floor to be able to either A) get a truck and power float B) buy another pallet of cement and sand required to pour the floor. We also need to purchase laquer for the full pool coping and dust proofer. Our final goal is to build a timber shelter, safety barriers around the perimeter and chill area.
All donations will be invited to a private session/jam where the park will be closed off to general public and goodies will be arranged with exclusive stickers and other give aways
