Nike coming to Newark Valley
September 14th, 2009The Nicholas Wilson Memorial Bike and Skate Park on Whig Street will get national attention when Nike holds their event, “Banksgiving”, at the park on Saturday, October 10th. Nick Marzolino, a local BMX rider, entered and won Nike’s contest for a $4,000 custom made ramp, to be designed by Nate Wessel (designer for the X-Games). When Nike found out the park is in memory of a fallen soldier, they decided to build more than just the ramp. Their building crew will start work the week of October 5th to be ready for Banksgiving on the 10th. Nike will be flying out their media crew and pro team riders for the event, and there will be food, contests and prizes.
More details to come!
