Park is located on Torresdale Ave. @ Comly St. Rain date will be Sunday, November 9th.
I was just at whitehall the other night….That place has seen better days. I hope they plan on fixing some shit….It’s like the only place you can skate with buttery ground and lights….
if the ground was coverd in butter. wouldnt it be slippery??? That would be a mess if it got hot
Event is starting at noon. Thanks for posting.
Sorry the picture is such shitty quality, by the way.
Hello everyone, Whitehall as you know has seen better days and thats why this event is going down. Krank it Up has stepped it up and will be donating much needed funds to the Rebuild Whitehall Skate Fund. We will be trying to get up there this week to make some repairs / build some stuff and put back the chains on the doors so that only a skater and their board can fit through.IT is time to reclaim this spot once again but we need you all to come out and show your support! See you there! After this if you are of age head on over to the Pops Playground and show some support as well!
bummer it rained today
No worries the rain date is for tomorrow, hope to see some or all of you there!
i herd greg got his board stollen at the whitehall jam
The Whitehall Jam went really well yesterday we raised a little more money for the cause and got several donations of used equipment for the Gear for GROMS Program. Not to mention all the great skating that went down! Thank you to everyone who came out for the fun!Also shout outs to Ambler Skate Shop and Krank it Up for coming on through. No thanks to that individual who stole Greg’s deck at the end of the event.Seriously not cool!
Someone’s board got stolen at Whitehall? Not surprised. I had a board stolen there too. Shit’s trife.
atleast they didnt steal my 2 by 4 board… that would have been a sin
I heard people were after those plastic grindy plates on the nose and tail. steal em all!
I saw a kid skate with 3 wheels…that was dope.
