Element Gold Strike
New Shoes
Thanks Everyone!
Thanks to everyone that contributed and/or bought a deck this weekend. You helped make another succesful show, and we raised $6000! Since we already have our skatepark you may be wondering what it will be used for. Well, the park isn’t all paid for yet, and there are still some finishing touches. So that’s where it will go, and if you haven’t seen the park, go check it out! You helped make it a reality!
Skateboard Art Auction
The live auction was last night and awesome. Selwyn slid in on a break from his job at One World Cafe to get the crowd spending and spend they did. At closing the bid sheets totalled over $4000, with 2 days left for most of the decks. A few were sold by Selwyn in the live portion of the weekend, and most are still up for grabs. Call Argyle Fine Arts at 425 9456 to place a bid. I couldn’t name all the pics, so if there’s one you like just ask them about it, they’ll help you out.
