NEST: Our Mission

ABOUT NEST

North East Skateboarding Trust (NEST) is a non-profit in the Fox Cities. NEST promotes positive community engagement, encourages acceptance and respect, and builds strong minds and bodies through the art of skateboarding.

NEST currently offers summer youth skateboarding lessons through Appleton Parks and Rec. and plan to grow to other community parks in the upcoming years. Our goal is to open an indoor skatepark in the Fox Cities to provide an all-inclusive, safe and welcoming environment through each Wisconsin season.

We need your help!
Skateboarding and other action sports have always been prevalent in the Fox Cities and have become even more popular since opening the skatepark at Telulah. The skate community and their friends are teaming together to raise money for an indoor skatepark – the only in the Valley!

Skateboarding is more than a hobby, it’s a passion. As the great Shawn White said “Usually, the thing that signifies that I’m done with the winter is that I start skateboarding”, and we don’t want that to be the case. Skaters, and those who enjoy other action sports, are forced to stop participating once the temperature drops or, for those who are able to, must make the trip to Green Bay or Milwaukee to visit the nearest indoor park.

NEST understands the importance of having a more accessible option for everyone where they feel welcomed and comfortable, and also where people can trust that their loved ones are safe. We would love to continue our skateboarding lessons, which is currently limited to the Summer months, and grow with other opportunities we dream of- but we need your help!

Appleton, Wisconsin was able to come together before to bring us an outdoor skatepark, we are asking for your help ONE MORE TIME!! Donate today and help NEST open an indoor skatepark.
