Prosser Skatepark - Phase 1
Description:
This is a request for funding to construct a skate park facility in which skateboarders, scooters, and inline skaters may practice and develop their skills. Presently there are no areas or skate parks where skating is allowed within a 40 mile radius. The lack of a facility generates damage and public nuisance. This skate park, in addition to providing much needed recreation, will foster relations between area youth, businesses, homeowners, and law enforcement. Phase 1 of this facility will take the form of an outdoor park consisting of a series of ramps, benches, and other terrain specific to these alternative sports. Future phases of the project will include the addition of other skating apparatus and park amenities. The park will be free to the public and its design will accommodate both beginning and more experienced skates. This safe, drug free environment will make use of the existing E.J. Miller Park facilities which includes parking, lighting, and restroom. It is important to note that the park will be constructed of concrete which is extremely maintenance free. This project, a partnership between the IAC, Prosser Kiwanis, the City and the private sector, can be a reality. By serving as a popular recreation center, the park facilities will combat the lack of recreational opportunities in a rural setting which includes migrant and low income families. Our vision is a park that will provide a safe place for all youth to use and enjoy for many years to come.
