Get Involved .. Click Wandle Park ..

Thanks to everyone who voted for Wandle Park ... Now take the next step ... Lets push for a concrete skatepark HERE... When you comment don't swear and be rude as this won't help our cause .. Lets let them know the positivity that it can bring to the area ... We all know there is a definite need for a decent park to accommodate every ones needs ... Lets keep the pressure on ... There is potential with your support to make an amazing Facility ...The totally unrelated pic is of Darth ... Check out the facility Si was involved in at Mansfield ..

It's now finished and ready to skate ..
