Previous Events

Skate Park Design Meeting ,
Monday, August 20, 7 pm -- WWTC Community Room
   
   Skateboarders, parents and other supporters worked as a group to come up with a proposed final design for the Viroqua Skate Park.

2nd Fundraiser Car Wash,
Saturday, August 25, 11 am - 2 pm -- North Kwik Trip parking lot
   
   A second fundraiser Car Wash was held at the north Kwik Trip in Viroqua on Saturday, August 25, from 11 am to 2 pm.   Kwik Trip's outdoor spigot broke at 1 pm so the car wash had to be cut short by an hour, but the event raised over $300 for the skate park.

Sunday, July 22, 2-5 pm -- Village Market Parking Lot
One Day Skate Park Demo Tour,
   Viroqua skateboarders had a chance to try out their new skate park one year early – if only for an afternoon. American Ramp Company (ARC), a manufacturer of modular skate park equipment, set up a sample skate park in the Village Market parking lot on July 22, from 2 to 5 pm.  About 40 to 50 local kids skated at the event.
This Event Raised $300 in brat and hot dog sales for the Skate Park.

Individual supporters will be setting up some of these fundraising activities and they will be posted on this website. $1,200 was donated to the Viroqua Skate Park Fund at the meeting by some of the supporters. A list of people and businesses who have donated to the project will be included on this website in the near future.
