The ultimate goal of the East Hampton Skatepark Committee is to get a permanent park built in town...possibly a cement park. Currently, Parks & Rec. allows us to use the old handball court at Sears Park for 3 seasons to house a wooden skatepark. We are required to remove the ramps and put them in storage for the Winter months. Below is a diagram that was featured in the Sears Park Master Plan that was debuted last Summer. Ideally, this is what we'd be looking to achieve.
Due to the tremendous effort we've been putting into the 2010 park set-up, building news ramps on a weekly basis, we have not bee actively raising funds over the last few months. The committee will have a booth at the Strawberry Fields Fest on June 12th selling baked goods and our skatepark fundraiser t-shirts. When the 2010 park set-up is complete in the next few weeks we'll again move our focus to fund raising.
