The city needs it for sure, unless you want the headache of chasing kids all over town for skating.

I love skateboarding and I think every kid should have a place to skate without worrying about cars or being harassed by police.

Skating as a youth gave me confidence, kept me from drugs, made friends, and kept me fit and strong. I still thank skatin for helping shape who I am and give me a strong character.

I’m signing this cause I’m a local skater and we’ll known in the skate Community. We would like to have an other chance to have a skatepark cause In Bridgeport there really nothing for youth to expand their talent in the skateboarding sport

Bridgeport is a huge part of the skateboarding scene in the 203. I have been to countless events hosted by Rampage that help bring our world together. I have personally organized 4 events at Newtown Skatepark, all of which Rampage has sponsored. Bridgeport has too many great skateboarders to not offer them a place to skate, not to mention the potential amount of young people who may become interested in skateboarding as a result of being exposed to it through a public skateboard park. A city like Bridgeport can use every healthy outlet for young people that it can possibly get. Without a skatepark in Bridgeport, the skate scene there suffers, and when part of the scene struggles, all of us do. Please give the skateboarders of Bridgeport a skatepark!

I’m singing because these people deserve this skate park. The only place where they feel free, themselves, and get to have fun and meet other ppl.

I fly up to CT every year multiple times. And there is nothing better then being in the atmosphere of BPT. Especially while cruising, crushing and enjoying a nice session with the homies. With nothing to worry about but busting out a bunch of Nollie heals to front boards down the ledges !

Bridgeport skatepark brought me so many good times. it’s good for the community to give the kids a place to go and be productive opposed to being in the streets. Rampage and bridgeport skatepark is the culture !!

I am signing this because a lot of kids have been on the streets and getting into trouble because they have nothing to turn to. Everything cost them money , parents struggle getting there kids in to summer camps because the expense , these kids look up to the older guys and girls that skate or ride bikes . These kids need this .

Rampage isn’t only a skate park it’s a local spot for the youth to go hang out with friends and stay out of trouble me my self I’m not a skater but a lot of my friends are and they are regular people that go to rampage on a regular basis

A local skatepark can bring together the community in a positive way. A Skatepark will bring business to the local area, also can be a great way to invest in the youth of Bridgeport by giving them a free, exciting, clean and friendly environment for an after school spot to meet, and make new friends. The pros will always outweigh the cons for a local outdoor skatepark. These reasons are only a few of the many, the city and the tax payers should support this project

Born and raised in Bridgeport, I skated the streets and park growing up, and personally know the positive impact that skateboarding can have on a person. By allowing another skatepark to be built in Bridgeport, I believe we would be providing a place for our city's youth to enjoy themselves and stay out of trouble.

We can't take away every positive hobby and expect to keep people away from crime and drugs. Make a place for positive influence, physical activity and support of our youth.

Cos that's dope

I'm a Stratford native and we lost our skatepark a while back. We our only left with very few quality skateparks in the area. I think the more skateparks built, the more prevention that youth get involved in crime. I'm a supporter in building a new skatepark in Bridgeport

Rampage is the only local skate shop I support. Keeps skaters like us happy. Rampage does very good business and would be a shame to see such an awesome establishment go to waste, especially since there aren’t many shops to begin with.
