Here's a preview of the next episode of Municipal Equation.
Once a person goes out and takes a look at, all of the things that are happening around skateboarding, it broadens the possibilities quite a bit. Kids are now going out to the parks commission and testifying to the need for a skate park, and they're engaging with city council. And they're saying, how do we do this? We need your guidance. We wanna work with you to to see this through. What do you need us to do? And that's a pretty incredible
thing when you stop and think about it. A lot of times these kids are 14, 15, 16 years old. Problem solving, community improvement, and connecting kids to local government through public skate parks. Guests include the Tony Hawk Foundation on the next Municipal Equation, a podcast from the North Carolina League of Municipalities online @nclm.org. All past episodes are at soundcloud.com/municipalequation. There you can find links to the podcast on Twitter, Instagram, iTunes, and more. We'll talk to you on June 20. This is Ben Brown.
