Mike Peña and Marijayne Renny saw Pontiac move much closer to having a state-of-the-art skateboard park on Friday afternoon, during a groundbreaking at Oakland Park, not far from where the current skatepark stands. They were joined by city, state and community leaders, skate enthusiasts, and Trevor Staples, The Skatepark Project's built-to-play skatepark manager. All those who spoke Friday expressed gratitude for the support of many individuals and groups, including the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation, Oakland County Commission, McLaren Health, and Girls' Friendly Society.
