Skate park

Westbank really needs a good skatepark. One reason is that there really isnt anything to do. Im not trying to sound greedy since we already have one which is called Johnson bentley skate park, but there arnt any good features to ours. We need something like Ben lee in rutland, which has a large bowl for bikers to shred, and they have an area for skaters to shred. Johnson Bently has a small hip/quarterpipe for bikers, 2 small boxes and a rail/4 set for skaters. Im a biker so I mostly ride the hip/quarterpipe which isnt actually that bad so maybe they could just add more features to it.

Another thing about it is its way to small, especially for a town our size. My grandparents old town of 10000 people had a much better skate park then our town of 40000 people which I thought was a little brutal. Although ours was built a long time ago, and Humboldts was built like under a year ago, so instead of building a whole new park maybe just add on. Or wipe out the whole thing a completely re do it. Im sure I could get alot of poeple on my side. Apparantly they were supposed to make a skate park in peachland, but it all the money raised went to a old person home or something which is a little dissapointing, but its for a good cause I guess.

So maybe a good skate park would be good for West kelowna, it would definatly attract more people to come here to see our park.
