Additional Information

The City of Omaha's first skate park was opened October 25, 1999 at Roberts Park. The two silhouettes of skate boarders watch over the park entrance. They are dedicated to the memory of Mathew Kress and Tommy Craft who campaigned for a place where skateboarders would be welcome. The plaque reads: "RESPECT ONE ANOTHER In Memory of Mathew Kress and Tommy Craft".
