As I parked my car, I couldn't help but smile at the sight of a couple of fair rides, all free to ride on Thursday night!

Skate Park Jam was once again a bustling event, with an even more significant presence of families and kids, making it a genuinely inclusive gathering. The participation of world-famous skaters added to the excitement. On Saturday morning, Randy Katen, a pro skater since 1977, generously shared his skating tips with all the kids.
