The extension to the Raglan Skatepark is nearing completion. Although officially “closed” skateboarders are continuing to use the existing bowl. Premium Skate Design have made excellent progress and the work on the extension should be completed as planned by the end of November. The project is costing $164,000 and will see the original 2002 skatepark extended by 240 square metres. The extension includes a snake run and a taco which have been welcomed by local skaters. There will also be seating to allow people to have a rest and watch the skaters tackle the new challenges and improve their skills.
