Chris Blackburn Memorial Skatepark

Chris Blackburn Memorial Skatepark is a park in Cadillac that features pre-built skate ramps assembled on concrete. The concrete is in pretty good shape, and some of the ramps are falling a bit into disrepair but are still usable. Overall, the park is looked after and a nice park for the area. On one side of the park is a view of Lake Cadillac, and the other end bumps up to the AAR Mobility Systems factory, which gives the park an industrial feel. We visited on a Sunday around lunchtime and were the only people there for our entire visit, although it appears to get quite a bit of use from the state of the ramps. There are not many options for skating in the area, but Chris Blackburn Memorial Skatepark is a great offering to those who live in Cadillac or are staying in the area and want to skate.
