Comments: This would prob be one of the best
parks finished on the East Coast in a while. A good mix of everything
for everybody and one of the best skatepark pools evert built.
I skated during the opening and must say it is the fastest, smoothest
concrete finish ever. Sam and crew put alot of heart and soul
into this one. It shows.

Construction:
Here are a few construction pics from various people
of the Skatepark of Bowie. The Skatepark is being built by Breaking
Ground Skateparks. Sloppy Sam and Co. broke ground a few weeks
ago and they are moving pretty fast. The city of Bowie will be
running the park and when the details come in I will post them.
