Chatham Skate Park is Open Again, So Why Should I Donate?

During the mild weather last weekend, lots of skaters could be seen testing out the newly repaired ramps at the reopened skate park.  If skaters can use the park again thanks to these repairs, this may leave you wondering:

Why should I donate?

The ramps are newly repaired, but:

• Chatham Skate Park’s original asphalt surface is 10 years old. 
• The surface is rough and bumpy.
• Because the surface is rough and bumpy, it’s hard to maintain speed from one ramp to the next.
• The surface won’t last much longer without becoming unsafe.
• A long-lasting acrylic surface specifically designed for skate wheels will return the asphalt to better than new condition.
• A newly surfaced skate park will provide years of recreation for youth-athletes from Chatham and the surrounding communities for years to come.

Please send your tax-deductible donation payable to “Township of Chatham” with “skate park” written in the memo line to: Township of Chatham, 58 Meyersville Road, Chatham, NJ 07928.
