From Milton Ontario Canada
I live in a small town that is growing rapidly (Milton, Ontario, Canada). We have tons of kids who skateboard and bmx, my kids included. The town built them a skate park, its small but does the trick I guess. A few months ago, the kids were all robbed at gun point by masked men, they took all their personal possessions. I was pissed! Anyways, I took my kids, to an indoor skate/bmx faciltiy,they loved it! I thought the place was amazing. Problem is, its pretty far from our home. When I got home that night, I thought about how nice it would be to give to the kids in my area, an indoor park. So I sat on the computer and emailed sponsors and anyone who would listen to me. Monster energy is interested in hearing a proposal. That got me even more excieted.
I have been busy getting things together,I am getting a huge response from the kids in our town, but I do need some kind of funding or sponsorship to help get it going, which I am looking into. I would love to provide an enviroment where the kids can come, feel safe, build self esteem and of course, have a place to ride and skate indoors!
