Last year we partnered with Open Road to build a mini ramp in the lower
east side at the 12th and Ave. A skatepark. It was a two day project where
our teens were instructed on how to build a mini ramp. We would like to
thank Lifeandtimes.com and everyone who participated in helping construct
the ramp. The result was a success and brought many smiles to the kids in
the neighborhood.
