This skatepark would be a good way to keep our youth healthy and for the most part out of trouble

It's a good idea and the needs of our teens are not always addressed within our community especially those who are not involved in organized sports. Not all kids play baseball; some like to grind :)

Hernando Skates is glad for your push. We can help with information when you want it. Work hard and make sure to build a poured in place concrete skatepark. Good luck to our brothers and sisters in Laurel.

I used to skate & people are so judgmental of skaters and assume they are all trouble makers & if there's a park then there is less likely to be so much judgement & they will have a place to skate without getting in trouble just because they are skating.

Cities need skate parks for safe places to skate ! Ive been skateboarding for 42 yrs and would have loved to have had a park to play in as a kid !

I signed the petition because my boys love to skate. They go all the way to Petal and i think a park in laurel is a great idea.

I'm from MS originally and now live in Hawaii. We have skateparks under some of the overpasses that the city built and all around our parks. Why not in the south?

Why not give the kids of Laurel something fun. The skating ring in Laurel is gone...so is the bowling alley around ellisville blvd. Skate park would be an awesome start!
