Our Skatepark

The Akron Skatepark (Akron, Ohio's only free outdoor skatepark) was built in 2001 for approx. $332,000, and is 19,000 square feet for Akron's 190,000 residents.


Rumor has it, there are plans to tear down the Akron Skatepark as early as 2027, to make room for a museum dedicated to blimps and aviation, since the skatepark is located on airport property, and the city's lease will soon expire. 


This will leave our community with NO place to skate, scoot, ride, or roll!


Please consider supporting our mission with a tax-deductible donation today!


We can't do it without YOU! Thank you.

"What Size Do We Need???"

What size skatepark do we need?

According to publicskateparkguide.org:


Skate spots are very small skateparks. They are usually around 3,000 square feet or smaller and contain only one distinct structure. About 5 skaters can use a skate spot simultaneously. 

(similar to FirstGlance Skatepark)


Neighborhood skateparks are the most common size and will serve a whole area of town. Neighborhood skateparks are commonly between 8,000 to 12,000 square feet. About 70 skaters can use a neighborhood skatepark at the same time. A single neighborhood skatepark can serve between 25,000 to 40,000 residents.


Regional skateparks are the largest facilities and attract skaters from a wide area. Many regional skateparks are tourist destinations, and most can easily accommodate large numbers of skaters and onlookers, and are suitable for contests and events. Regional skateparks are typically 20,000 square feet or larger. A regional skatepark can accommodate 100 visitors or more.
