Welcome to the Nicholas Wilson Memorial Park site, brought to you by the Nick Wilson Memorial Park Fund Raising Committee...Kelly Baker, President
Bob Wilson, Vice President
Tracey Cucci, Secretary
Shannon Baker, Treasurer
The Village of Newark Valley has graciously allowed a bike/skate park on Village property on Whig Street.
The park is named in memory of Nicholas Wilson who died in Iraq on 2-12-06 while serving our country. He was a Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class, EOD Mobile Unit 3.
With the help from a grant the Village received, work has started on the park, and a fence has been erected.
Here is bmx-er Nick Marzolino helping out.
Here is an excerpt from a blog by Kelly Baker:
Here is what we have so far. Some people I want to thank for helping this project get off the ground are the mayor Jim Tornatore, Peggy Head, John Kaufman, Scott Combs and the Wilson family. We have a long ways to go but I think we are doing pretty good so far. When I am out there working alone I can't help but think that if Nick Wilson was around that there would be no way he wouldn't be right by my side working away.
