Young people in the community are pleased with this initiative. The determination of the three students piloting the project was rewarded by the National Bank, which provided $5,000 in prizes. Raffle ticket sales brought in $1,000, and $200 was given by the youth foundation Jeunes-Projects. The goal of the project was initially to build one module, but this was then expanded to three. A positive graffiti contest was organized to encourage every student at the school to get involved in the project. Videos on skateboarding techniques were filmed, and a helmet safety awareness campaign was launched.
Students at the school took part in the survey and entered the graffiti contest, as well as helped paint the graffiti. Fundraising among families and the community took the form of raffle ticket sales. Parents helped build the modules and paint the graffiti. One of the students' fathers accompanied the boys during their meeting at city hall and to look at ramp models. The community centre agreed to store the modules in the winter. The town of Saint-Lazare provided both funding and land for the project. Some teachers assisted the students with filling out different forms and advised them during committee meetings.
Education Through Entrepreneurial Spirit is excellent for integrating skills from the Preschool and elementary education program and the Secondary education program.
