Hey - all you little kids:
We got a session now, made just for you. You don't have to worry about any of the bigger guys being in your way or anything.
Here's how it works: we'll open the doors at 10:00 am - long before we open for everybody else. If somebody is older than 10, they have to wait. And it goes like this until noon! After that, we'll open for regular business.
During this session, we'll often have someone here to help you out. If you need help going down a ramp or something, just ask and they will be glad to help.
We also offer private lessons, too. These lessons are one hour long and one-on-one the whole time. If you would like to sign up for one during this grom session (or any other day), just call the skatepark and ask about our lessons.
DO YOU HAVE A VIDEO THAT YOU FILMED AT PROGRESSIVE?
Well, we are looking to create a new video page that is supplied by you and you along. Whether it is you by yourself or a group of friends, as long as it is footage from Progressive ONLY, we would be happy to post it. It can be on youtube, vimeo, or anything else. I need a total of at least 12 videos before I can create this page.
Just email it to me HERE. . All you have to do is send me the link. Until then, we can only wait.
Skateboard 101
FREE***FREE***FREE***FREE***FREE***FREE***FREE
We now offer free skateboard lessons to beginners every Wednesday night. If you are just getting into skateboarding, this is for you. We will be introducing elementary basics like proper stance, pushing, going down small ramps, and a couple basic tricks.
We have a little change in our 101 Skateboarding Classes starting Wednesday August 18th.
Due to the overwhelming response from young skaters wanting to learn, we will now limit the number of skaters attending to ten per session. The best way I feel to keep it fair is we will now have 3 one hour sessions on Wednesday nights. The sessions will start at 6:00, 7:00 and 8:00. It will be first come first served, but you can call and reserve your skater a spot and get the time you want. Don't delay, call now.
Oh yeah, it is still FREE to attend.
Be sure to check out the Rider Submitted Videos page. We've added over 20 videos to it already, and we're always looking for more.
If you have a video, just EMAIL the link to me (YouTube, Vimeo, whatever...), and I'll post it. It's that simple.

Recycle Program
Don't worry - I'm not gonna bother you with any of this ''Go Green'' mess....
We started a program back in Feburary (a copy of my friends Ryan's program at SPOT) to gather up all the used skate stuff we could get. The idea is to build as many completes as possible using parts that are laying around in your garage, bedroom, kitchen drawer, or anywhere else. Once that's done, we'll head out on Christmas Day and hook up as many under-privledged kids with skateboards as we can in hopes of being able
to possibly change someone's life. If you're down to help out, simply bring by anything you're willing to part ways with the next time you come to the park.
Just realize that by throwing in a set of old trucks, you could very well change someone's life...
