Southern Pines Skatepark Fundraising Drive

 

 

Want to join us in making a positive difference in the Southern Pines community? We are raising money to build an amazing and free public skatepark in Southern Pines, NC. Skaters for Moore Organization has partnered with the Friends of the Skateparks Foundation and the town of Southern Pines to design, raise funds, and build a free public skatepark at Memorial Park located on Morganton Road, between South Bennett Street and US Highway 1. This park is great for family outings, birthday parties, reunions, company outings, and group meetings. Amenities include playground equipment, a picnic shelter with grill, several picnic table and grill areas, restrooms, and lots of parking. A well designed and built skatepark will be the perfect addition to Memorial Park. This project will have positive impacts for the entire town by lowering crime rates, increasing property values, and increasing tourism. Skateparks are multi use facilities that can accommodate skateboarders, bmx riders, inline skaters, roller skaters, and scooter riders. Skateboarding is the fastest growing sport in the world and is now an Olympic sport.

 

Our total project goal currently sits at $350,000. The Town of Southern Pines has earmarked $50,000, the Skaters for Moore’s grant writing committee is searching for grants, the Skaters For Moore's fund raising committee is working on some fundraising events, and the Skaters For Moore's skatepark design committee is coming up with the best design possible for the Southern Pines community.  

 

We need your help. No amount is too small. Everything counts. The time is now. Are you on board?
