Australind is a growing community about 150kms south of Perth. Their skatepark is of a very poor quality and the community has gained council approval for a new 1.35 million dollar skatepark to be built. The only catch is the community needs to raise $50000 to help. Freestyle Now is happy to get involved to help out. This will be only one of many jams that they will hold to assist with gaining funds to help. Support for this is needed from many participants, even if you were to come down and hang out and just get involved in any of the other activities or just drop by and donate some cash. Remember many people will come to the new skatepark once built and enjoy it but will you be able to say that you actually helped? Everyone wants a new park and new places to shred but you have to work for them. Come on down for the day to show your support as the new park once constructed will be amazing with it being a great stop over on the way down south to the plethora of other skateparks in the region.
On the day there will be 2 coaching jam sessions 10am to 12 and 1pm to 3pm $5 per session (please be 10 Min early to sign up) The local community has rallied together with lots of local business pitching in to help so even if you are not actively involved in the skatepark activity there will be plenty of ways to help raise the funds. 100 Vouchers for Eyebrow threading from Thread Away will be up for grabs for just $10 each, 50 vouchers for trendy Kids haircuts from Kinx Hair Port for just $10 each, Reflexology and Massages will be offered on the day for $10, Self- defence classes – learn nifty tricks to keep yourself and your kids safe $5, Action shot series from your children when they are doing their tricks on the Skate Park $5, Lauren Reynolds, professional BMXer and Olympian is coming from 1.30 to 2.30 for a signature and photo opportunity session, Bouncy castle and Toys for the little ones, Food vans to sell fries, soft serve ice cream, drinks, fairy floss, Harvey Fresh fruit juice and the super yummy sausages from Pete`s chop shop.
So come down to the Australind skatepark, and give something, your tricks, your energy, your dollar, your time.
