The City of Wichita opened its second “mini” Skatepark at Orchard Park, 4808 W. 9th Street, in December 2005. The 40’ x 66’ park, designed by SK8Park International, is the result of a collaborative effort between the City, Department of Park and Recreation, Police Department, the Orchard Park Neighborhood Association and numerous corporate and private donors, including:

• Wichita Area Builders Association
• Cox Communications
• Cornejo and Sons, Inc.
• Voegeli Concrete Construction
• Signature Exploratory Theatre and Arts
• Sunflower Neighborhood & Business Association
• Riverside Citizens Association
• Signs & Design, Inc.
• The Wichita Eagle
• Wichita Independent Neighborhoods, Inc.
• GreenWay Alliance
• Grace Wu Kung-Fu School
• The Pusher
• Quik Trip Corporation
• The Wal-Mart Foundation
• Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #5
• Wes Galyon
• Bill Warren
• Dan Monnat
• neighborhood kids who volunteered and sold wristbands, T-shirts and held car washes to help fund the project.

City Park and Recreation Department employees installed the equipment at the park which includes an 18”- 3 sided corner pyramid; a 2’ x 2’ x 6’ ollie box; a 12” x 24” arch rail slide; a 2’ x 8’ quarter pipe and a 2’ x 8’ spine ramp.
