We are excited to have Michael Riordan join the Friends of the Roc City Skatepark (RCP) Board as its third President. Michael succeeds Jim Maddison who returned to the RCP Board on July 1 after serving as its President for most of RCP’s history.



Michael comes to the RCP with decades of experience in higher education, project management, social good, and the arts. We are looking forward to his leadership as the RCP begins to shift its focus from building a skatepark to activating that space and building community around progression-oriented sports.
