Fundee Day– A celebration of skateboarding prowess and silliness in the constant fight against apathy and staleness.
I think the last Fundee Day I remember was at ‘the Hawky’… some of you locals will rememeber, some won’t. That kinda doesn’t matter, because from here onwards we are starting a new chapter of Fundee, hosted onour own, genuine,legitimate concrete park.
Fundee day will be shared with a music event in the park, as you can see by the NEW (edited) poster above… don’t ask, it’s all politics
There WILL BE A TROPHY. dunno about prizes-n-stuff but I’m sure that will all come out in the wash. Stay tuned. Show up, be cool, don’t get me in trouble.
BTW – the council moves a wee bit slow as you know…. and the Head of Parks Managementsays he is trying to get ALL ‘the big boys’ on board and help us do the grassing in better, more official style.
So: the actual grassing /photocallis going to be put back again to SAT 21 JULY.
Not to worry! Show up this Saturday (weather permitting) and we’ll have a wee BBQ anyway. I saw a few foreign types (Glasgow, A’deen) last night at a skate-art event in the ‘Go,and they are planning a trip up here anyway. Come along and lets have a wee pre-Fundee loosen-up.

Also, we’ve been asked to post this:
Acoustic Ecology – 23rd-27th July 10am-5pm
On these days there will be workshops in Dudhope Park based around exploring the sounds in the skate and main park. You will have the opportunity to listen, record and draw with the aim to explore the different sounds in the park and from these, produce images on t-shirts and create short sound pieces. These workshops are free but will be run on a first come first serve basis.
To register please email the Environ Project at:environ.project@dundeecity.gov.uk
GRASS-SEEDINGPARTY AT DUDHOPE: SATURDAY 21st
