🏗 Pocatello Skatepark Updates – July 4th Opening Projected – Check back for grand opening date
The new Pocatello skatepark is taking shape. The bowl has been poured, transitions are sculpted, and flatground is laid. The crew from Artisan Skateparks went full throttle to get us to this stage.
Next steps include drainage and irrigation work to be completed by the City of Pocatello. While the park may look finished, it’s not ready to ride just yet. We’re asking the community to be patient and respectful—riding before it’s officially opened could cause damage or delays.
📅 If all goes according to plan, the skatepark will officially open the weekend of July 4th.
💬 “Let the concrete cure!”
We’re working closely with the City, Skate Idaho, and Artisan to make sure the park opens safely and on time.
Special thanks to:
-
Dave V. at Skate Idaho for his relentless efforts
-
The Nichols family, whose generous donation in memory of their son Chevy added some incredible features in his honor
-
The City of Pocatello for funding this long-overdue project
🚫 This park took a long time to make happen—don’t mess it up by skating it early. If we take care of it and show our gratitude, we increase the chances of a Phase Two in the future.
