Thanks to the crew @boardersinc for passing on the message above from @warringah council. Looks like the aquatic centre ramp located in Frenchs Forest is getting a resurface! @clovermoore @cityofsydney it would be awesome to hear back from you regarding our proposed "buff/polish" of the existing surface at Waterloo.
Thanks to everyone who attended THE CRESCENT (Glebe skate space) design meeting today! So many amazing ideas, suggestions and design concepts already being put down on paper! This facility will be about the same size as Waterloo and will be constructed in the space currently occupied by "Balmain Rentals". More info coming soon @bjornj @convicskateparks @cityofsydney

Please guys....come along so The Lord Mayor can see (first hand) how desperately we need more facilities! The more numbers and support we see from people simply attending tomorrow the better!
Join us tomorrow Saturday 22 August from 1.30pm 3:30pm at Federal Park to see the design for the new skate space and give your feedback to the designers. You can find us just next to the playground, between Johnstons Creek & the viaducts. Thanks!

Please click the link in our bio to view the first draft designs and have "your say" by following the instructions stated on the site. PLEASE NOTE: This is a rough draft and there is still time to make amendments and changes. There has already been some great amendment suggestions made by those attending the design meetings! This design reflects input from the open design consultations which have been held over the past few months. Also - The beloved "Glebe mini" is going to be relocated underneath one of the archways next to the park. Thanks guys! We are slowly getting there

ONCE AGAIN - WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!!!! @cityofsydney and @clovermoore are planning to cut 1.5 million from the Sydney "urban skate parks strategy"!!! We need EVERYONES support by attending Mondays meeting at Town Hall to ensure we don't (once again) get over looked, short changed and (to be blunt) treated as second class citizens! Our good friend and industrious advocate @clrlindascott will again be stepping "into the ring"
On our behalf to fight for us! IF YOU LOVE AND CARE FOR SYDNEY SKATEBOARDING YOU WILL BE THERE MONDAY! WE CANT DO THIS WITHOUT YOU! PLEASE REPOST AND SHARE WITH YOUR FRIENDS! Most importantly - best behaviour! No alcohol, no stupidity or "class clowns". We will see you there! #wearethevoters #wearetheratepayers #wearethehomeowners #wearetheyouthofsydney #wearetheparents #wearemany

Help us spread the word! Girls, boys, mums and dad's.... We want to see you all there! It's time to show this council who REALLY supports the development of a more "progressive Sydney". Shared spaces, "skateable moments", being able to share public spaces with the greater community....let's move forward like the rest of the country and world @cityofsydney. For one of worlds most affluent councils spreading out or delaying 1.5 million for five years sounds a little strange to us . Skateboarding participation rates are increasing. We need more and we need it now. We are hoping for a positive outcome tonight @clovermoore @cityofsydney Remember everyone- best behaviour and no alcohol! See you there!

It's not hard to see why Melbourne is considered Australia's cultural hub and was also voted "the worlds most liveable city" in 2014. "Open/shared spaces" for physical recreation that give entire communities the ability to interact with each other are few and far between in this city! But hey.....a few more high rise apartment buildings will keep everyone happy for now...right? We are happy to discuss when you are @sydneymorningherald @dailytelegraph @keepsydneyopen
