The Oak, Manchester’s new Skatepark within Charter Oak Park, officially opened Sept. 13. The event consisted of speeches given by Mayor Jay Moran, State Sen. MD Rahman of the 4th District, State Rep. Jason Douchette of the 13th District, and event organizer Luc Parandes. But the highlight was the park itself, which features a pump track and full-sized turf soccer field.
