Misc: This is just simply a lighted mini ramp, covered with tarps and with a couple of hanging lights to help skaters make it through the long Oregon rainy season. Thank you, Cascade Sports, for providing this tiny peace of sanity! There are some rules you must observe in order to skate here, so call ahead to learn the details or you may not be able to skate. No drinking fountain, but a pop vending machine inside the shop. No payphone, but I was told you might be able to use the shop phone. There is a restroom to use inside the shop.
