The pit where my 9 used to be

Yesterday a reporter for Cooper Discourse witnessed a pacific giant salamander rescued from this pit by one of the guys who was standing around watching the excavator do its thing. A lucky break for the largest terrestrial salamander in North America? Sort of. Its home was destroyed by the skate park project, but at least it escaped with its life, right?

R.I.P. Hole 9

A haiku in memory of the big pine:

Nine Pine hits the ground
With colorful splash of discs
Someone's lucky day

Ace hole 9 soon, or forever hold your peace.

"Exciting News!

We plan to break ground on the Eureka Skate Park on Wednesday,
September 19th, at 5:30pm, at Cooper Gulch Community Center.

A special THANK YOU! to Justin Zabel at Mercer Fraser and everyone
else on the construction team for making this important first step
happen. With their help, we plan to complete the site preparations
this fall - grading, adding compacted fill, and installing the
drainage system.

I look forward to seeing everyone on September 19th!


PS:
Let me know if you're interested in organizing food and refreshments
for this event.
