Palatine Park District to Host Community Input Forum for New Skate Park

Palatine Park District will be installing a new skate park at Riemer Reservoir, located at the corner of Wood Street and Quentin Road. This new skate park will replace the existing park located near the Fred P. Hall Amphitheater in Community Park.

To gather community input and ideas, a Skate Park Community Forum has been scheduled for Wednesday, April 3 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm at Community Center, 250 E. Wood Street, Palatine.

The Community Forum will be a drop-in event hosted by staff members from Palatine Park District's recreation and parks departments as well as representatives from American Ramp Company. Discussion topics will include equipment components, park layout, beginner and advanced sections, and policies, rules, and procedures.

Community members interested in providing their thoughts on these items are encouraged to RSVP to Todd Ranum at tranum@palatineparks.org or 847.496.6238.

The mission of Palatine Park District is to provide a variety of safe, enjoyable and affordable parks, programs and recreational facilities that will enhance the quality of life by promoting good health and well-being for all residents and visitors while being fiscally responsible stewards of community assets and tax dollars.
