On Saturday 26 July, 37 lucky people went on a coach trip with the Stamford Skatepark committee to try out the brilliant concrete skatepark at Saffron Walden.

Everyone was really impressed by the 'bowl' style skatepark - the facilities were good for skateboarders, roller bladers and BMX riders. The park could be used by people of all sporting abilities (even some of the old wrinklies like Colin our chairman)
This is exactly the type of skatepark that we need in Stamford - just think of the new people it will bring into the town (who will want to spend their money in the shops, cafes and hotels!)
If anyone wants to help the project in any way, email us at stamfordsk8park@yahoo.co.uk
