Letter to the editor: Skatepark project is an investment in our youth

The Middlebury Skatepark Project, a grassroots community group of parents, students, teachers, skateboarders, roller skaters, and rollerbladers, is working to bring a much-needed recreation space to town.

Skatepark boosters pivot to new strategy

Leaders of an effort to build a 7,500-square-foot, concrete skatepark in Middlebury’s recreation park are shifting their strategy in hopes of garnering more financial support for a project currently estimated at $375,000-$562,000.

Auction to aid skatepark project

Organizers of a Middlebury Skatepark Project are holding an artwork auction to generate more funding for what’s expected to be a 7,500-square-foot, delightfully undulating concrete facility at the town’s recreation park.
