Skateboarding makes its moves
Skateboarders showed off their best moves during an open house and tournament at the Ballard Commons on Saturday, June 24. Skateboarding advocates set up information booths and a chair made out of skateboards was raffled off. The event was sponsored by the Seattle Parks Department and the skateboarding community.
The Seattle Parks Department says there are thousands of skateboarders in Seattle - roughly 20,000 - with only two public skate parks.
