The John Boste Youth Centre stands as a testament to the power of youthful initiative and community spirit. Youngsters at the center have been commended for their remarkable endeavor - building a colossal 600 skateboard ramp! This impressive feat showcases their passion for hobbies and leisure activities, as well as their determination to create a space where they can freely express themselves. The image captures two brave youngsters taking the plunge on this brand-new ramp on August 17th, 1989. Their faces radiate excitement and exhilaration as they ride their skateboards with skill and confidence. It is evident that skateboarding has become an integral part of their lives, providing them with both physical activity and an outlet for self-expression. This medium group of boys represents a mixed age range, highlighting how skateboarding transcends generational boundaries and brings people together in pursuit of shared interests.
