We Are

Since the Sioux Falls Skatepark Association’s (SFSA)  conception in 2017, our volunteers have activated their passion for skateboarding to nurture community relationships.  Through public events, SFSA strives to change the perception of the sport, while promoting physical, mental, and cultural wellbeing through skateboarding.  With the construction of a state-of-the-art public skatepark, SFSA can further elevate our mission in a space our entire community can be proud of.

In the late summer 0f 2022 after a successful fundraising effort and our Innoskate event we decided to grow our mission and change out name to Let's Skate. We are now dedicated to continuing to grow skateboarding in our community while building capacity in other communities by teaching them how to get skateparks built and assisting them with marketing and messaging including the base message of Let's Skate!

Our Mission

After surpassing our goal as The Sioux Falls Skatepark Association and starting our skatepark design process, we realized that the messaging and materials we had built as well as the skillsets we had acquired could be invaluable in consulting with other community's and their efforts to get skatepark movement's started. In addition opportunities for programming in Sioux Falls as well as outreach to other communities in the region all were appearing on our radar. In August we put these opportunities into conversation and decided to change our name to Let's Skate to encompass the following goals. Skatepark Consulting, Capacity Building, Local Community Building and Statewide Community Outreach.

Skateboarding creates a community for people who share a desire for creative expression. It promotes individuality, and requires dedication.
