A big turnout at Quispamsis Council to show support for construction of a skateboarding park in the Kennebecasis Valley.
Town Councillors were told the need is there with an estimated 800 regular skateboarders in the K-V and that could be low balling the actual number.
Council heard from an active skateboarder, James Buchan who offered his opinion of the skateboard park in Saint John.
The estimated cost of a skateboard park in the Valley is pegged at half a million. It's hoped development can begin in the spring but the town has not committed itself to providing any money yet.
