Hot Spot Skatepark Day was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who came out and participated in the event/skate contests and enjoyed all the freebies our partners contributed.

It takes a village to put on events and maintain our parks and the City of Spartanburg Parks, Recreation & Special Events is extremely thankful for our partners including the Coalition For Active Youth, HotSpot Convenience Stores, the Friends of the Skateparks Foundation, Daville Skate Shop, Disorder Skateboards, Terry Grimble, Kwesi Holloway, and of course our skaters who always show up to support!

Congratulations to Dawson who was the raffle winner for a brand new skateboard! He is pictured with our friends from the Coalition for Active Youth, who play a huge part in keeping the skatepark updated, which includes the latest upgrade of the concrete skate bowl. Thank you for everyone’s donations to CAY, every penny helps us maintain the skatepark features!
