we are working with the park and rec dept. to find funding to begin the design phase of waller st. we are also trying to install temp ramps to bring the public out to this space. We are also trying to find an angel for this park.... any suggestions would be great.
Our heros, Rec and Park Director Phil Ginsberg, Dana
Ketchum and
Dennis Kern have been working with us to get a storage
container on-
site to hold all of our donated ramps so we can
bring them out on
weekends and wednesday nights at Waller. This is
very big news for us
because it gives us a place to skate in Golden
Gate Park for the
summer and also will show the neighborhood the
good side of
skateboarding. What does all this mean now? Hopefully
by the end of
March we have our storage container in place for
weekend skating
though the summer. We also need to be more
insistent that the Rec and
Park dept. keep it's promise to follow
through with the design for
the park. Many loyal SFSA members spent
over six months holding Nicks
hand through the process of picking a
designer, let's hope he hasn't
wasted all of our good effort.....
more to come.
