Hers whats going to happen on Saturday:
We are opening the gates of Lucan Skate Prak for the very first time to the public,It will be free skate but everyone skating will have to sign a waver, We want as many people as possible to show up for the opening at 10.30 and hopefully have the park at full capacity to Count how many people will be able to skate the park at any one time, Please spread the word about the opening!
