Revision as of 10:25, 19 June 2015

After the death of his friend Ryan Brennan from an in-line skate accident on the street, Tim Lunt vowed to build a skate park for safe skating.

As part of his Eagle Scout project, Tim Lunt designed a skate park in Gallows Hill Park on top of an old tennis court.

The skate park was named for Brennan in a formal ceremony scheduled for June 30th, his birthday.

The skate park is intended to be fun for a range of ages and skill levels for both skateboarders and in-line skates. It should appeal to young and old.
