HOLIDAY SKATEPARK IN VALLEY GARDENS HARROGATE
With Easter school holidays round the corner, Harrogate Borough Council is adding to its package of play activities with a temporary skate park in the Valley Gardens.
The skate park, which is being jointly funded by North Yorkshire County Council's 4Youth Service, will open at 12 noon and close at 7.00 pm each day between Monday 6 April and Friday 17 April 2009.
The skate park will be located on one of the tennis courts next to the playground and is free to use the only requirement is that all children wear hard hats.
If the weather turns to rain or snow the skatepark will have to close, as it is not advisable to use in wet weather.
Arrangements are already in hand to provide a temporary skatepark during the half term holidays and it is hoped that it can also be made available during the summer holidays.
