Banksgiving Jam

2009 Oct

The Nick Wilson Memorial Park in Newark Valley, NY will celebrate its grand opening this Saturday, Oct 10th with the Nike 6.0 Banksgiving Jam.

For the past four years, the Village of Newark Valley, local BMXers and friends and family of Nicholas Wilson have been committed to building a community skate and BMX park in honor of Nick.

In 2007 the Village donated the land and the Nicholas Wilson Memorial Park Fundraising Committee formed to make this dream a reality.

Banksgiving is a day of shredding that brings together the BMX community for a good ol’ session with friends, pro riders, music and a feast for all. Nike 6.0 athletes Dennis Enarson and Todd Meyn of Australia will be flying in to celebrate along with Nick Marzolino, who is returning home from his station in Texas to be a part of the festivities that will honor his good friend.

See you at Banksgiving!

Banksgiving – Oct. 10th
1:00 PM-4:00 PM EST
Nick Wilson Memorial Park (83 Whig Street)
Newark Valley, New York
