Northglenn Skatepark

This just in:

Dear Skate Park Supporter,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your interest in a skate park in Northglenn. As many of you know by now, we did receive funding from Adams County Open Space for the skate park! The park will be design in 2010, with construction planned for early 2011. This is very exciting news for everyone who worked so diligently for so long to make this project a reality in our community!

I am writing to again ask for your support. The skatepark budget, as was submitted to Adams County Open Space, does not include any lighting. TO further enhance the park, the City of Norhglenn is seeking additional funding from Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO) to add lighting to the park.

The lighting will be of the type that provides directional light to the park itself, while minimizing any impact to the surrounding area. It would be on a timer, and only usable during pre-determined hours. The lighting would be user-activated, so that energy is only used when the park is actually in use.

If you would like to see lighting at the skatepark, please send a letter of support to:

City of Northglenn
11701 Community Center Drive
Northglenn, CO 80233
Attn: Amanda Peterson

In your letter please include your name and address. Also, please note which of the following groups you identify with:

* Foundations or Civic Organization
* Community Member
* Local Business
* School
* State Agency
* User or User group

To meet the grant deadline, all comments or letters of support are requested by January 22, 2009. If you have any questions or comments about the proposed renovations, please contact Amanda Peterson at 303.450.8950 or at apeterson@northglenn.org.

PLEASE MAIL A LETTER OFF TO THE TOWN OF NORTHGLENN TODAY!!
