Upward Intuition: Led by Jon Shell of Upward Intuition, this session will explore how a grassroots movement turned a dream into a destination: the Blake Doyle Skatepark in Downtown Pensacola. Learn how local youth became powerful advocates, what it took to bring the project to life, and what’s next now that the park is built.

From Grassroots to Grandeur: In this session, EB Brooks and JP Macfayden will share the story behind the creation of Moncus Park in Lafayette, Louisiana, while Jarah Jacquay will discuss his ongoing efforts to develop The Bluffline, a multiuse path connecting West Pensacola to the University of West Florida. Together, they’ll explore the lessons learned from projects at different stages, one completed and one in motion.
