**NEWS!! "VELODROME in the SLC VALLEY"?
Could 100 meters of smooth stuff happen any time soon?Updates: slow, but forward progress on a proposed outdoor and indoor Velodrome facility here in the greater Salt Lake area. We are behind the effort 110%! Having a 100 & 200 meter sanctioned track, along with the road track, would be crutial in bringing organized roller sports to Utah, for events such as Track Inline Racing and Roller Derby. If you interested in becoming a financial sponsor or volunteer contact us at Skatenow and let us know. If you like the short stuff, this is for you. We're going the distance to put skating in SLC on the map!
We need you to make this venue happen!! Please call, write, or email us with your support.
