Zelienople Community Park — Attraction in Zelienople

lovely skatepark. However, today’s experience was a racist one. People travel near and far to come check out and skate "PUBLIC" skateparks. Not show up and be watched, approached and treated with bias simply because of the color of their skin. Not OK at all.

Ironically enough, a group of teens, two male and two female, "Caucasian" showed up who weren’t there to skate, nor swim at the pool next to the skatepark. But instead, they paired off to hook up.

He constantly yells at people for little infractions, and feels creepy being as hes an older man alone in a children area of a park every day.
