Last Thursday, we held our first annual holiday party, and it was a
great success. We had over 40 people come out and enjoy the piano
playing of Brian DiBlassio, and food and beverages from Arbor Brewing
Company. The best part of the night, though, was simply hanging out
and talking to other people from our community who support the idea of
a free, public skatepark in Ann Arbor.

During the party we took the time to thank those supporters who have
made the biggest difference to our cause. These businesses and
individuals have gone above and beyond to help insure that Ann Arbor
gets the world-class skatepark it deserves. Here's a list of the
people we thanked at the party:

Acme Mercantile
Ann Arbor Parks Advisory Commission of 2008
"Homeless" Dave Askins
The Blind Pig
Wes Dean
Jeff Dehring
Jennie Hale
Diandre Jackson
Stephen Kunselman
Launch Board Shop
Kevin McDonald
Redbelly Board Shop
Sun & Snow
Vault of Midnight
Sam Works
Lauren Works
Zattoo

We are overwhelmed by the support we've gotten from the citizens of
Ann Arbor, and the surrounding communities. We couldn't do this
without your support, interest and assistance. As we move into the
fundraising stage, we look forward to making the next year even more
successful than the last.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
