Good stories here about a DIY park in Uganda and an indoor park in Kabul that serves 300 children every week.

"But I mean if people don't put their money where their mouth is, they probably don't think it's such a good idea. But now we've definitely got excellent feedback once people see the smiles on the kid's faces".  OLIVER PERCOVICH -Skateistan

Things are "Switched" up this year for Go Skateboarding Day. We do not have our E. 7th st. Temp park up and running yet so we will not be holding a skate jam.

We will be over at the skatejam in the upper parking lot of Skyline Church (3100 Skyline Drive, Wilmington, DE – at the corner of Skyline Drive and New Linden Hill Road, near Skyline Middle School). Sponsored by Switch Skate and Snow and Skyline United Methodist Church.  Prizes will be awarded for competitions and also raffled off throughout the day. Bands and Vendors will set up in the upper parking lot with food, skateboard supplies and displays. Looks like a fun event!
