East Shore Skate Park

Our Mission
East Shore Skate Park is a skate and bike park built to have fun and progress. Our goal is to provide a location for new, young, up and coming skaters/riders to learn as well as a great place for advanced riders to meet up for a good session. East Shore Skate Park is dedicated to keeping a state of the art design, excellent programming and professional facility while maintaining an affordable price for admission. In addition, we are committed to providing a friendly atmosphere where riders/skaters of all abilities feel welcome and part of the community.
About Us
East Shore Skate Park, located in Lansing, NY, is one of the only rider owned and operated facilities in the state. Here at East Shore, we provide the local and regional community a safe and fun environment for anyone who rides BMX, skateboards, rollerblades, or scooters. These alternative sports have been growing in popularity on the national level and show no sign of slowing down. Sports such as Football, Basketball, and Baseball will always be prominent in our society, but the action sports that take place at East Shore have created a new and refreshing way for the Tompkins County community (and beyond) to spend their recreational time all year round.
ESSP is open Wednesday – Sunday. We open at 3pm on the Weekdays and Noon on the Weekends. The fee to ride or skate is $10 on the Weekdays and $15 on the Weekends (starting January 2012). However, we do run a special on every Wednesday for $5…
Just as any other recreation facility, we host many special events throughout the year, such as competitions, birthday parties, musical acts, summer camps, fundraisers, and learning clinics. Many of our competitions attract a large draw and have been featured in different press outlets such as the Ithaca Journal, Lansing Ledger, and national online sources such as ESPN, BMX Plus! and Ride BMX.
East Shore Skate Park is now in its fourth year and we are hoping to take the park to the next level. Since its inception, the park has gone through many changes to offer the best and most progressive spot for people to recreate. Now, we need the community’s help to bring the quality of our facility to an impressive level. We already have several industry sponsors that help with providing product for the pro-shop, however, we are looking for sponsors to help provide capital to improve the current park features and add additional outdoor features. The capital raised will also allow East Shore to hire additional staff, as well as increase programming options.
In the near future we are hoping to become an official Not-for-Profit 501(c)(3) organization, make renovations to improve the facility, and build an outdoor section for the warm summer months. Additionally, we are working very hard to keep the price of admission as affordable as possible. With the help from sponsors, we will be able to upgrade the facility, hire additional staff and keep the price affordable to everyone. In order to make these goals a reality, we need your help…
