Skate Stratford launching fundraising campaign

Skate Stratford is launching its fundraising efforts today.  The organization is trying to get a new skate park built in the city.

Right now the park is located near the YMCA on Downie Street.  The new park will be built in Shakespeare Park across the street.

Organizer Stew Cappie says they want the new park to be something special:

Cappie adds the idea is to build a park that’s inclusive:

In total the group needs to raise between $350,000 and $400,000.  Today’s launch is happening at the current skate park at 4:30pm.

You can find more information about the efforts at their website.
