The name of 'Loughborough Skatepark Association gained majority vote as the official name to front our group.

FlowFlys and other non "skaters" shouldn't be discouraged by this name. The name doesn't compromise the prospects of a multi-purpose area. It simply highlights the fact that the group has been set up to renovate the existing skatepark.

The name will be used to set up the bank account and will be used on formal documents as a name for our group.

It was also agreed that the covering letter/250 word statement needs to be finished by next week so we can start to apply for grants.

The bank account will be set up tomorrow.

We need to start fund raising asap. We will be doing tee shirts and other clothing through spredshirt.net which we now have an account for.

We need names of bands and contact details to start arranging the gig.

All other fund raising ideas are VERY welcome!

cud we put on a 'show' like with the Skater, BMX/Trials rider and Traceurs (the flowflys)??? but i do not know where or how we cud do this, but i think its a good idea to start fund raising.
