Joe's Skate park, Placerville California

Joes Skateboard Park Requires Protective Gear Lady!

This public skatepark facility is all concrete with combination bowls at either end. One side is 7 ft. deep and the other is about 3ft deep. They also have a lot of rail sections with an anti washboard section, mini pool. It's a big area to work and if you loose your board while skating you’re going to get a good workout chasing after it. It’s located in Placerville Ca., at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds right behind Raley’s Supermarket on Placerville Drive, take Forni Road exit off Hwy 50. What makes this park so special is that the community saw a need for such a skate park and built it. They didn’t cut corners and they did it right. “If you build it they will come”. Placerville Rotary Club spearheaded the project, with the city and local buisness donations providing funds.
