OUR GOAL--$4000-by April 15th
Hello Friends of "Waterbury Skates"--
We held a meeting on friday night with our committee and ambassadors with our special guest Richard Bowen. We ate some good pizza and had a productive brainstorming session. The ambassadors want to add a rail to one of the hips--Richard agrees! The skaters have spoken. Thanks to all in attendance. We generated a great list of folks who might be generous donors to the project. The letters should be in the mail this week and we're hoping to raise $4000 by April 15th. Talk it up!!! We're on our way!
Donations can be made out to: Town of Waterbury Skateboard Park
