About the project
"Texas Beach" is a Richmond, VA DIY skatespot that has fallen into a bit of disrepair and is surrounded by quite a bit of debris and garbage. Also, it is located in a community with many young people who are interested in skatebaording but may not have the means to acquire proper skateboarding equipment.
We aim to clean up the skatespot and give away some complete skateboards to the local kids who help out.
The Steps
The goal is to clear all the debris and garbage from the skatespot. We'll rent a truck and use volunteer power to remove the debris We'll also be giving away complete skateboard to the kids who live near the skatespot.
Why we‘re doing it
We hope ths project offers the skateboarding community a chance to display responsible stewardship of a DIY spot, which will hopefully lead to the creation of more much-needed places to skate. This also helps clear out dangerous debris and garbage from the spt.
