Kinnaird Youth Indoor Skatepark

Kinnaird Park Community Church Youth Pastor Matt Fontes and myself, Ty Smith, are working with a group of enthusiasts on a indoor skatepark right here in Castlegar. This has been 2 1/2 years in the making and now everything is falling in the right place to see the KYIS open for Xmas 2011.

Due to the generosity of the Rossland Skatepark Association’s membership we are setting up their ramp to use as the primary piece of the KYIS. The KYIS thanks all the supporters of this project.

Below are some of the photos during the demolition and cleanup.

A core group gathered to hear the presentation from Trevor Morgan of New Line Skateparks. The consensus amongst the group was that the park design fitted with most of the wishes of the skaters and non-skaters. This means that Phase 1 is now complete. More tinkering and feedback will be occurring in the next four weeks to complete the final design.
