We are on our way to raising 300K & we need your help.
QB Skaters is driven by a collective commitment to elevate skateboarding culture and contribute positively to our communities. Our goals are skateboarding advocacy, fostering community through skateboard meetups and raising 300K to build a new local skatepark.
We aspire to create an inclusive environment where skateboarding is not only embraced but celebrated as a vibrant and constructive recreational activity.
Through our advocacy efforts we have received a financial commitment from the Town of Qualicum Beach of $1.2 million towards the total cost of the redevelopment project.
When will the project break ground?

Skate meets
Deets and Dates
skate meetups foster natural, organic mentorships among friends. Participants are encouraged to support and learn from each other, but these meetups are not structured training sessions or learn-to-skate programs.
youth meetups includes kids ages 12-18. We do not offer meetups for younger children at this time.
Participants join skate meetups at their own risk. We are not liable for any injuries or accidents that may occur during the meetup. All attendees are responsible for their own safety and well-being.
Skate meetups adhere to the rules and regulations of the skate park or venue where the meetup takes place. Participants must respect park rules and guidelines at all times.
By participating in our meetups, attendees acknowledge and accept the inherent risks associated with skateboarding. They understand that skateboarding involves physical activity and may result in injury.
