Has anyone called and made an appointment with whomever could grant us weekend access to GWHS?<br></br>
<br></br>
I think an official blue t-shirt, a ring binder full of waivers and a short, typed, mission statement combined with a vague explanation of what we're doing and our policy of leaving no trace couldn't hurt at all.<br></br>
<br></br>
It's not like if they said "no" that we'd stop.<br></br>
<br></br>
I'd be willing to do it if no one else would. Seriously.<br></br>

There are 2 outcomes; One, it works and we all split the cost of whatever fee they want for legal use of the space. Two, it doesn't work, and since I'll omit WHEN we'd train, things remain the same.<br/>

I think that restictions haven't killed skateboarding, why would they kill parkour? Very true, mold, tetanus, and…tag:baparkour.ning.com,2010-11-22:2070047:Comment:688332010-11-22T18:02:17.890ZByronhttp://baparkour.ning.com/profile/Byron
Very true, mold, tetanus, and abestos is a big issue on the island. It's not even the biggest problem. They have a whole bunch of cemicals left over from when the navy held the territory. I figured these wouldn't have been to big of a problem, given everyone kept to the outside of the buildings. Y'all tried it in the past and didn't like it, I won't put the time into throwing up a map. The area I was thinking was best was a block or two away from the YMCA too.

Abestos, tetanus, and mold wait for you in those buildings.<br />
<br />
Treasure Usland is the kinda spot you WISH that the cops were around. Especially these abandoned buildings.<br />
<br />
It's been tried here back when Aero worked with the YMCA in the island and it didn't work out as a legitimate training location.

Could you post a link to a map of where to start, <a href="http://baparkour.ning.com/forum/categories/2070047:Category:15917/listForCategory">adding a discussion like "Treasure Island" here</a>?<br />
Thanks!

You know what would be interesting (to me and other high school students especially)? What if one of you guys actually got a certification to be a PE teacher and came to teach at an SF public high school? I know my school (School of the Arts, on the old Macateer campus) is pretty chill about different kinds of PE teachers (we have a dance class taught by the dance department head, a fencing class taught by the theatre department head, and used to have a tai chi class taught by the jazz band…

Think about it.<br/>
Maybe I should post this on a separate forum to get more consideration... :)<br/>

I'm very new to parkour, however, I've lived on treasure island for a few years. They have more than thirty buildings that aren't in use anymore. During the day the cops don't drive around too much. Might be a sweet spot to check out.
