Skatepark before bridge in Trail

It is being reported on MountainFM that Trail will be seeking provincial funding from BC’s Community Recreation Program to cover a majority of the approximate $450,000 price tag of their new skatepark. The kicker is that this was prioritized over a potential pedestrian/bridge crossing  replacement which could be extremely pricey and has had little discussions as yet.

Finally some forward thinking for the youth and community of Trail…well done to Trails Mayor Dieter Bogs

He is a humble Montrealer who has made a name for himself by creating skateboard videos and capturing some of Canada’s best skaters from east to west with his particularly creative style of filming.
Jeremy is a skater and a motivator when he’s behind the camera, showing mad patience and confidence in the skater he’s capturing which makes filming with him a productive good time. He’s always good to go and his batteries are always charged!— Barry Walsh
