    WITH THE CUTTING of a ribbon Aug. 24, Lombard Park District officials celebrated the grand opening of the park district’s new skate park in Madison Meadow. Over 50 eager skate boarders had to be held back by park district Deputy Director Rick Poole before the ribbon was cut. The skate park is located with the tennis courts and parking lot at Madison and Chase; is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.; and is unsupervised. A warning and safety rules sign is posted at the park’s entrance.
