SK8 ART Camp/Gallery Show (Fall 2012)

In the late Fall of 2012, we organized a 2 day camp for kids to create one-of-a-kind custom skateboards.  These boards went on to hang in Foxy Loxy Cafe for a whole month.  The proceeds from the sales of these skateboards helped us add another $1500 to constructing the skatepark.
