 RE: THE FUTURE OF THE SHED SKATEPARK CRANBOURNE

Fourteen years ago The Salvation Army in Cranbourne commenced involvement in the running of The Shed Skate Park, Cranbourne. This was in response to a need within the community for such a facility for young people. 

Over these fourteen years The Salvation Army has enjoyed being involved in the provision of this service to the community, which has benefited countless numbers of young people.  We have enjoyed doing this, being able to contribute to the community in such a positive and constructive way.

However the need for The Salvation Army to be involved in the running of The Shed Skate Park is no longer there.  The Casey City Council has developed a new Skate Strategy, which will see The Shed Skate Park move into a new and exciting phase of its existence, and we at The Salvation Army are fully supportive of this new direction, believing it will be of great benefit to our community.    All enquires regarding the future of The Shed Skate Park should be directed to Mr. Andrew Butterfield at the City of Casey, ph. 9705 5200.

We at The Salvation Army wish to thank all those who have supported and patronised The Shed Skate Park over these fourteen years and hope that you have found your time there to be of great enjoyment and benefit.  To celebrate our involvement at The Shed we are having a celebration day on Saturday 29^th December 2007, which will be our last day of operation.  From 12.00 noon to 5.00pm will be for skaters.  From 5.00pm to 10.00pm will be for bikes.  All admissions will be half price.

Whilst not being involved with the running of The Shed Skate Park any longer, The Salvation Army Cranbourne is committed to being a valued member and contributor to our community.
