Tyre Nichols Skatepark Grand Opening Celebration – Sacramento, CA – The Skatepark Project

In the wake of Tyre Nichols’ murder earlier this year, community has come together in record-time to do great things in his name. His local Sacramento skatepark is being rebuilt with his designs and named in his honor.

Because of Tyre’s infectious energy and impact, his community will have an amazing space to skate for decades to come. Thanks to Grassroots Law Project, Tyre Nichols Foundation, Tyre’s close friends and family, City of Sacramento, Council member Lisa Kaplan’s office, Vans, CA Skateparks and everyone who helped make his dream park a reality!
