Saturday Youth Skateboard Camp takes place on Saturdays, Sept. 11-Oct. 23, in Middletown Township at the skatepark. Ages 6-8 is from 8 to 9 a.m.; ages 9-12 is from 9:15 to 10:15 a.m.
This course is for both new and experienced skateboarders. Participants learn balance, body coordination, creativity, teamwork and how to develop their physical and mental strength. Beginners learn how to get on/off a board safely, how to push and go down small ramps. From there, they’ll explore different types of ramps and tricks with instructors. For experienced skateboarders, instructors will teach them new tricks and give tips for those who are having a hard time landing a trick.
Taught by instructors from Skate the Foundry, a Philadelphia-based skateboarding program that won Best of Philly in 2019 as the best place to learn how to skateboard. Helmets required. Register at middletownbucks.recdesk.com/Community/Program
