About Us
Who Are We
Friends of Fernandina Skate Park is a non-profit organization aimed at promoting healthy physical outdoor activity, developing bonds and encouraging self-esteem through the expansion of our skate park into a safe, challenging and inclusive park. Through FFSP’s Boards for Boarders (B4B) program we are investing in our youth and by providing skateboards that they would not normally be able to get to help encourage a healthy, active and engaging lifestyle that will build character and develop bonds that will last a lifetime.
Our Vision
Our vision is to build a facility that will meet the diverse needs of our community. This park would support the needs of all wheeled sports enthusiast including skate boarders, scooters, skates, in-line, and adaptive skaters.
The proposed facility will be a safe, family friendly site and world class caliber skate park that will meet the needs of Nassau County, as well as, attract wheeled sports enthusiast from around the country and potentially host major skate competitions in the future.
Benefits
There are too many benefits to list in one place. In addition to our B4B program supporting our local youth, there are the social benefits of providing a facility for young people to pursue an athletic activity that they love. There are public health benefits to having a safe place for young people to develop active lifestyle.
Skate jams and contest can be fun and instrumental in bringing the community together.
With its ocean view our location can hands down be one of the best skate parks on the east coast. Sure to attract skaters and families from all over to enjoy Fernandina and what it has to offer.
Event Postponed to Spring 2021
Good Day Everyone. I hope this message finds you all healthy and safe during this crazy time. We have some sad news! We will not be able to hold Beach, Boards & Beats this year due to the impact of COVID-19. We feel our best course of action is to regroup and bring you a first class event in the Spring of 2021
