Maplewood’s skate scene proves that community matters just as much as the tricks. At Maplecrest Park, you’ll find skaters showing up for one another more than you might expect from a small local scene. New faces and regulars share lines and cheer each other on, making Maplewood feel like home to all. Featured here, 13-year-old Caleb Wolff Perrotta throws down the tricks captured in these photos.

Meet Luna, a 5-year-old Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Luna just moved to Maplewood in June last year. This is her first time living in the suburbs after being in cities all her life. She enjoyed Halloween so much and greeted so many trick or treaters!
