The Truck Stop Skate Park, Bend’s only indoor skate park, closed it’s doors on April 12th. The building was recently sold to make way for basketball courts. At this point there is not a new location slated for the park. There is hope that a new location can be found. A skateboard art show and fundraiser to help with the relocation process is being held this Sat April 26th – hosted by SOLSK8S as part of the Last Saturday happenings at The Workhouse . See the flyer below as well as some photos from The Truck Stop and video of the last Saturday session.
