Rye Airfield Is Up For Sale

July 7, 2020

Here’s some news that we’re bummed to hear! It sounds like after 18 years Rye Airfield skatepark out in New Hampshire has been put up for sale. This massive skatepark has been doing a ton for the Northeast, and it’s definitely a bummer to see they’re struggling, with COVID not helping things out! They’ve put things into plan to potentially keep operating until 2022 if everything works out, but it sounds like they could close at any time, especially if a buyer comes along for the building and land that isn’t interested in keeping the skatepark. Below you can find the official details from their website! Let’s hope they find a way to keep things going, or a new owner can take over that can make it work! It would be a bummer to see another amazing park close down!

Check out the full details below!
