Meetings are held on the first and third Tuesday of every month at 7p.m. at City Hall, 118 Hillsboro Avenue, Edwardsville, Illinois. We would love to see you there!
City Council meetings are one of the most important ways we can show community support for the Edwardsville Skatepark Project. A strong turnout proves that local residents care and want to see this become a reality.
We have a petition with over 1,000 local signatures, but unfortunately that’s not enough. We now have to take action by emailing or calling city council members, as well as attending city meetings regularly.
Edwardsville deserves a space that caters to its diverse population's interests - including those who love skateboarding. We urge local authorities to consider this proposal seriously for the betterment of our town's recreational offerings.
