Montana Skatepark Association : On Deck 4

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

This year’s On Deck IV Skateboard Auction has something for everyone. Art for the arty, skateboards for the skaters and donations to charity for the charitable. If you’re a charitable skating artist than this is simply a no-brainer. They chose 50 artists including Stewart+Brown staffer Laura Devendorf whose board is shown above to paint skate decks to auction on behalf of the Montana Skate Association. Even if you’re not a Montanan you still have a chance to score these boards through online bidding and there are so many cool ones to choose from. The Montana Skate Association was started from the ground up by a group of driven twenty-somethings who were fed up with absence of free and legal to skate and is now a full-fledged non-profit with every last dollar going straight to building and maintaining parks for the kiddos and grown-ups alike. If you are a Missoulan yourself, be sure to attend the live event on May 1st at The Badlander, 208 Ryman, Missoula MT from 5-10 pm.
