“I started skating The Pioneer Club Skatepark when I was 15, as a man with ADHD this place was and still is such an important space to me and for people like myself. The park has been an outlet for many people over the years of all ages and backgrounds. Without The Pioneer I can't help but question where I would be, I can trust that many others have similar experiences with the place.”
