Park the Park  

Event Information:

It’s been almost 10 years since the idea of a skate-park was raised in Chemainus.
The rally is meant to get the park back in the conversation.  A family event showcasing the skate/bmx culture.

Riders of all abilities are encouraged to bring their “ride” bmx, skateboard or inline skates to Water wheel Park for a Rally to support the idea of finalizing the skate-park debate.

Friday 4-9 pm

The event is as follows.
Mini park set up with rails, ramps and half pipe ( North Cowichan supplied)

Skate/bmx films, music, skate demo’s concession stand, and sponsor give away prizes.
