I host a fingerboard event in the heart of Route 66, a location that serves as a central hub between California, Las Vegas, and Phoenix. Despite its prime location and the footfall it receives, our city park is missing an essential recreational facility—a fingerboard park where families and enthusiasts can come together and share their passion for this unique sport.

This lack of a dedicated space for fingerboarding is not just an inconvenience but a missed opportunity. Fingerboarding is more than just a pastime for many; it's a growing sport that provides physical activity, creativity, and a sense of community. Our local gatherings already attract a substantial number of participants who travel from various locations, underscoring the demand for a proper venue.

Building a fingerboard park would enrich our community by offering a safe and inclusive environment for people of all ages to enjoy. It could also stimulate local tourism and business by drawing enthusiasts from neighboring cities and states. Imagine the vibrancy it would add to our community park, turning it into a bustling and welcoming space that celebrates innovation and play.

According to trends in recreational activities, the popularity of fingerboarding is on the rise globally. Cities like Berlin and Tokyo have already embraced this trend by setting up dedicated spaces, leading to increased tourism and local engagement. There's no reason why we can't join these forward-thinking communities.

We urge our city planners and council members to consider the numerous benefits a fingerboard park would bring. It is time to act and invest in a feature that aligns with the recreational desires of our community. By signing this petition, you support bringing a modern and exciting sport into our everyday lives.

Sign this petition to make Route 66 even more of a historic and cultural landmark by supporting the creation of a fingerboard park in our city park. Together, we can create a vibrant, interactive, and enjoyable space for all.
