Staying safe, Rhonda Church, M.D., President Doctors Nova Scotia
"Skate where it's safe. Use skateboard parks, roller rinks and playgrounds." The Casket, Aug 2, 2006

Skatepark enthusiast, Christopher Gooding, Springhill, NS The Casket, Nov 1, 2006

Playground an embarrassment, Sean Lyons, Antigonish The Casket, May 16, 2007
"In several other communities across the province, citizens and local governments are buty raising funds to provide upgraded playgrounds and skatepark facilities for their youth... Here in Antigonish we see a paltry $10,000 dedicated to playground equipment and very little support for the Antigonish Highlands Skateboarding Association's continued efforts to build a skatepark for the Town's youth. Our young people deserve better. They should not have to beg for fun, safe, friendly places to play."
