Given by 3 generous donors in around 6 months

After 30 years of our kids campaigning we are finally building a skatepark in Pirongia - but we need your help to make it awesome!!!

Pirongia, Waikato

Pirongia has a proud history of independent adventurous youth offering exploration within a bike ride of the village. Sadly as our youth get older the village lacks activities for our rangitahi which sees them travelling away or losing the sense of contribution and belonging they once had as little people in our village.

We want to keep them connected and provide a place where they belong in our village.

Generations of our rangitahi, over the past 30 plus years, have been campaigning with our local council to build a skate park in our village. We have finally been successful in getting council support to enhance the community's recreational offerings by providing a dedicated space for youth engagement by building a state-of-the-art community skate park in our village.

We have the land but need to raise the funds to build it!!!

The development of a community skate park in Pirongia represents an exciting opportunity to enhance the recreational landscape of our town. By investing in this project, we will create a vibrant space that promotes physical activity, community engagement, and youth development. We invite you to support this initiative and help us make Pirongia a better place for all its residents.

Waipa Community Trust's involvement (page creator)

This project is a partnership where Waipa Council has provided the land and some seed funds and we as a community are raising the build funds.

Use of funds

All funds will be used to build components of the skate park commencing in August 2025
