About Me

The Walla Walla Skate Park is located at the Fort Walla Walla Park, Dalles Military and Myra Road in Walla Walla, Washington. XXXXXXX In October 1999 ground breaking occurred at Fort Walla Walla (our current site) and work was completed for the unofficial opening on New Years Day 2000. The Walla Walla Skate Park celebrated its grand opening in March 2000. XXXXXXX From the beginning the goal of the Walla Walla Skate Park Association was to provide the youth of Walla Walla with a quality skateboard facility that would address the needs of the growing skateboard community. An emphasis was put on a permanent cement structure within a city park that would be a safe haven for skaters, parents, and spectators. No fees would be charged for usage, and maintenance and oversight would be provided by the Skate Park Association. XXXXXXX In 2004, The Skate Park Association began seeking funds to build a phase three (advanced area) bowl/pool section that is to be built adjoining the existing facility directly to the east. This advanced area is a greatly needed addition to the existing facility. XXXXXXX (above text taken from the WWSPA website: http://www.skatewallawalla.org/)  I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) Do It For Johnny!
