Sunday Skate with The Washington Area Roadskaters!

SUNDAY SKATE: The University Tour!
Join us this Sunday as Hamza leads us on a campus-hopping street skate across DC! We’ll be rolling through some of the District’s major university grounds, hitting iconic local favorites, and carving through classic scenic spots along the way.
(Note: We’re skipping the far-north campuses this time—saving those hills for an advanced route coming soon!)

CRITICAL LOCATION & TRAVEL UPDATE
Due to the Freedom 250 Grand Prix taking place downtown this weekend, we have moved the meetup location to Franklin Park instead of Freedom Plaza to avoid race-related street closures and congestion.
Street closures, detours, and public transit reroutes will be in effect across the downtown corridor. Please check road closures and transit alerts ahead of time, and plan for extra travel time to reach Franklin Park.
WHAT TO BRING

• Inline or quad skates in good working order
• Helmet and protective gear (strongly encouraged)
• Water / hydration and snacks

Grab your gear, bring your water, and let’s roll!
