the initiative
Warwick Skatepark Initiative is an advocacy group formed to build a new, state-of-the-art public skatepark in Veterans Memorial Park in Warwick, NY. The new site, adjacent to Albert Wisner Public Library, is approved by the Village of Warwick. The new concrete park will offer skateboarders, scooters, and bikers a more exciting, challenging, and updated facility, providing our community with an outdoor activity experience that is not just updated and improved, but Olympic ready!
