What better way to break in the new location by having our first game of skate inside in our skate space. We have a room just for skateboarding.
Game of skate will be on Saturday, August 22nd @ 5pm, at our new space on Kemper street. Exact location, see homepage, click directions.
Cost is $2, and since we had the fire, all waivers were destoyed, so we need you to fill out new waivers. Bring your helmets too. The winner gets to pic any deck from our board wall. We will also have some other stuff to give away.
It looks like we will get our occupancy permit by wednesday. That means I can start building fixtures and setting up the new shop. I am going to say we should be open by August 1st.
That is what Ben Gold told me Saturday evening on the cell phone. That is how I found out that Scene 3 was on fire. I got in my car and drove toward the shop. All I had to do was follow the large smoke trail comming from the shop. When I arrived, I had to park at Graves Mill Shopping center and walk down 221. They had the entire road blocked off. I could see fire trucks and police. Then I saw the building, or what was left of the building. Then only thing left standing were the outside walls and part of my sign still clinging to the front of the building. I did manage to salvage the number “3” from the wreckage, although melted and warped. The fire began behind the bike shop on their back deck. We have our suspicions of how it started, but we will leave that up to the investigators.
I just finished watching the newest video from Zoo York called “STATE OF MIND”. Some of the best street skating I have seen in a while. Skating from Zared Bassett, Aaron Suski, Chaz Ortiz, Brandon Westgate and others. Bunch of heavy hitters. Such a good video.
