POUR IT NOW means pour the concrete now. Our goal is to secure funding for unique, challenging and fun concrete skateparks in South Carolina. The fact is Skateboarders outnumber participants in most popular sports including Baseball and Football. While tennis courts, baseball fields and soccer fields go nearly unused, skateparks are bustling with activity each day as long as there is light.
