About Me

River City Skatepark is a future 10,000 square foot skatepark in South Seattle. The project is a grassroots effort of neighborhood activists, Grindline Skateparks, and Sea Mar Community Health Centers. Fundraising is complete and we are working through permits. Check back on the profile for show updates and events to help raise money to build the park. RCSP will be a free of charge all concrete park with 1/2 street and 1/2 bowls with rails, ledges, stairs, oververt, walls, and a skate plaza. Construction is targeted to start in January 2009 with completion around May 2009. Check out www.rivercityskatepark.com to find out about events, meetings, and upcoming fundraiser shows...
