Memorial Skatepark

My homie Matt Gilmore (RIP) got us all together in high school to play a concert for the city in order to raise money to put this skate park in. This was some classic Empire Records type action. Maybe the kids need to know this legend so they can do the same and make the necessary upgrades. See me and Matt in this photo. I’m cheech’d.

The flat ground needs paint/sealant. It is rough. It will only get worse too if something isn’t put on it.

Great skate park not very many people go and use it but it really is nice and family friendly

Great skate park but a little small.

It's fun. Lil tight but fun if your in the area. Go get ya some.

Tear this skatepark out and have the city pay Dreamland skateparks to build a new one please. It’s an Olympic sport now. Lets support the youth!

I still remember how awful this skatepark is...Its obvious the city put this in for looks and not functionality. This set up would be suitable for a town that cannot afford to build a decent skatepark, but not in a beautifully maintained town like Watsonville. Next time when constructing a skatepark, they city should consider consulting the actual skateboarders themselves. Nice try Watsonville, but you missed the mark on this one! This is not a park that someone would return to unless it was their only choice. Not a Destination Skatepark. Millions of better choices within 100 miles.
