The Cortland Skate Park’s T-shirt design contest has wrapped up and we're excited to announce the winner! Congratulations to Rachel Ryan of Homer, NY. Rachel is an 18-year-old student at Homer High School. She is currently in a Graphics Design Class where she came up with the design. Her interests include snowboarding and taking pictures.

Onondaga Skate Park Field Trips
Skateboarders will want to get “on board” for the trips to Onondaga Skate Park this summer through the Cortland Youth Bureau. The Onondaga Skate Park is a “one of a kind” on the Northeast, an all concrete park similar to the ones you find in California. Space is limited so sign up early or you may be left behind! And remember, if you have a season’s pass for the Cortland Park, you’ll get a $1 discount at the Onondaga Park admission.
