For some months behavior at the City of Bishop Skatepark has edged closer to inappropriate, so when a local father called the City to say a drug deal went down right in front of him and his five-year-old son at the skatepark, that was the last straw. As we had reported, the City of Bishop has closed the skatepark until possibly June 6th.

City of Bishop Community Services Director Keith Caldwell said that the City just wants users of the skatepark to “follow the rules.” Call Caldwell with any questions, 873-5863.
