Road Trip to Florence, KY Skatepark: Weekend of Sept. 20th/21st, 2008

"Florence Y'all!"...as the famous water tower welcomes you.

We are planning a Florence, KY concrete skatepark session for either Sat, Sept. 20th or Sun, Sept. 21st depending on the weather forecast. Florence is located in northern Kentucky...not too far from Cincinnati. In my opinion, this is one of the two best well-rounded concrete skateparks within a 150 mile radius of Indy (Ft. Wayne as the 2nd one). The street section is amazing (includes a flat, round rail)...not to mention a great bowl! (See photos below!) If we have the time and energy, we most likely will check out either the Delhi Township, Cincinnati, OH skatepark or the Lawrenceburg, IN skatepark on the way back. These two parks are amazing, too!

Date: Sunday, September 21, 2008 (Updated)
Est. Time of Departure: 9:00 AM
Place of Departure: Major Taylor Skatepark parking lot
Est. Cost: $10 cash per person (for gas!)

Please reply to this post if you're thinking about going. Thanks.

Hope everyone can make it! Get vert!

Peace, Matt L.

Shotgun!!! This park is probably my favorite parks I've ever been to. COUNT ME IN

This park was very kick ass the last time I went. I'd really like to go again but I may have already made plans depending on the day. BTW nice huge air pic Matt.

Oh come on Chris, you just got back in town and you know you want to come out...

Hey, Chris. I know that spot in Evansville! Maybe next time for Florence.

Matt

what time to you think you'll get back Matt? I really want to go.

Hey, Chris...

ETA Indy: 6-7 PM

Arrive in Florence by Noon.
Roll.
Leave Florence around 4 PM. Truthfully, I won't have the energy to visit another skatepark after skating Florence for up to 4 hours.

Hope this helps!
