Capital Outlay Proposal
Our Vision
Implement #3 Community Vision 2000 Goal – Skatepark while supporting Riverwalk Recreational Center & Hockey Rink
History of Skateboarding & Inline Skating Background – Skatepark & Hockey Revenue neutral-income will offset
maintenance & operating expenses $266,000 capital investment
History of Skateboarding & Inline Skating Skateboarding started in mid-60s from surf
culture Types of skateboarding: vert, street skating,
stand-up downhill racing, luge Inline skating started in 1980 – one of fastest
growing sports Types of inline skating: recreational, vert,
aggressive, hockey, & speed Fastest growing sport – 10 million skateboarders
& 30 million inline skaters in the US
Background – Skatepark
Local youth-use sidewalks since 70s 80-100 active skateboarders With dedicated facility: 100-150 skaters Demand is high & growing Albuq: skatepark most widely used facility Exposure to liability is less than feared – only 2
claims in 11 months (Albuquerque 450,000 pop) Skaters drawn to park-easier to enforce ordinances Economic development draw for traveling families
Inline Hockey Program Youth hockey has operated for 6 years in
Carlsbad Blades/Jenerations facility was used but is no
longer operating Carlsbad Hockey Assoc. (CHA) has 70 players
and is a member of USA Inline Hockey USA Inline provides insurance and rules
governing play Incidental contact only, like soccer, and
games have officiating to enforce rules No major injuries during 6 years of play Spring and fall seasons totaling 24
weeks/year
Inline Hockey Program Hockey programs in:
-Alamogordo 90 players-Las Cruces 140 players-El Paso 225 players-Midland 270 players- Lubbock, Amarillo, Albuquerque
Carlsbad teams have typically played in 5 or 6 tournaments/year
Anticipate 125 to 150 players if new facility is constructed
Proposed Inline Hockey Facility 75’ by 150’ concrete playing surface with
fiber reinforced plastic dasher boards dasher board support frame constructed of
galvanized steel for low maintenance experience at other facilities has shown
these facilities have low maintenance costs CHA players would pay $30 per year
membership fee to Recreation Center to cover maintenance
CHA would continue to provide its own player insurance
facility also to be used for roller skating and inline skating etc.
