Blumenfield & Tony Hawk to Cut Ribbon on New Skatepark for the West Valley
CANOGA PARK, CA – Tony Hawk and members of the Birdhouse Skateboards team will join Councilmember Bob Blumenfield and City leaders on-site to help the community inaugurate the Lanark Skate Plaza: a brand new 14,000 sq. ft. street plaza style skatepark set among old-growth trees at Lanark Recreation Center in Canoga Park.
A pro demo by Hawk and the Birdhouse Skateboards team will follow the grand-opening ceremony and ribbon cutting.
