Earlier this month, Brattleboro’s Select Board passed a motion to accept a $14,000 grant from the State Recreational Facility to be given to the town’s Recreation Department to help fund the design and construction of a local skateboard park at Crowell Lot. The town also received a $5,000 grant from the Tony Hawk Foundation, an organization that has helped to fund a number of public skate parks across the nation. The Brattleboro park has been in the works for almost two years and is expected to cost a total of $300,000. You can view the official text here.
