The citizens of Concord and other surrounding communities deserve a well-designed skatepark built to modern standards. Other parks are being built around the area (Derry, Nashua, Portsmouth, Worcester) that are significantly better than the Concord Skate Park, setting the standard for what a modern park should be.

As the city invests money into rehabilitating, maintaining, and improving all aspects of the Kiwanis Waterfront Park, we want to ensure that the skatepark is included, well thought out, and designed by the people who will use it. This is your way of saying that you think it is time the city invests in a real skatepark that will give the youth growing up in Concord a chance to learn on top-of-the-line equipment.
