Time is running out for those who would like to put in a bid in connection with the fundraising effort for a public skateboarding park in Sturgeon Bay. Over 20 skateboard decks & longboards, hand painted & donated by local artists are on display at Glas, the green coffee house in Sturgeon Bay, as part of the skateboard art exhibit. According to the event’s organizer, Matt Young, five of the decks were sold outright at the “buy it now” price & bidding is increasing on the others. The show will close at 7PM Friday. The Sturgeon Bay skatepark initiative is inviting the public to stop by from 5PM to 7PM to see the display, check the bidding & be on hand for the final countdown. Glas offers live music with Jeanne Kuhns & Lost Mothra beginning at 6:30PM Friday. All money raised through the auction will help fund the construction of a public skatepark to be located next to the west side ball field on Madison Avenue.
