Skatepark YES
The Skate Park Leadership Advisory Team (SPLAT) is fundraising with the Anchorage Park Foundation to improve skateboarding, BMX biking and in-line skating facilities in Anchorage. Funded by the Alaska State Legislature and local park bonds, their first skate park project is currently underway at the Spenard Recreation Center! SPLAT goals for future projects include:
- Take better care of the skate spots that we have
- Replace damaged or aged skate ramps and equipment
- Construct a new skate spot on the northeast side of Anchorage
- Find a new site and fundraise to construct the 25,000 square foot concrete, competition-venue skate park
