00:00 Why do you think a parkour park should be built in Orange?
00:03 Especially for teenagers in this town, there's not enough for them to do.
00:07 Like, there's not enough at all for them to do.
00:09 Something that's free of charge and free access for them is something that I think needs to happen.
00:14 Especially in an emerging sport where parkour is googled more around the world than mountain biking, climbing, and most urban and extreme sports,
00:23 I think says that there's a want for this type of thing.
00:25 And to have something that's free of charge and easy to access is huge and definitely should be looked at.
00:31 And so I think the community should be engaging in this to give teenagers something to do and to keep them engaged, especially in sports around the town.
00:42 The next step is to search for funding. Talk to me about how you're going to go about that.
00:52 We're looking into NSW Government grants and also through the Council.
00:57 But at this stage we're still trying to put together a roadmap of the costs and that type of thing.
