Saw a posting over on beerorkid…These guys are planning on skateboarding across Nebraska! People do some crazy stuff to help out children and others these days. I have to say this is probably going to be a very challenging one. These guys support Bay 198 Skatepark, which is located in Westfield Gateway Mall in Lincoln. Bay 198 is one of the only indoor skate parks in Nebraska and is locally run and a nonprofit park. They charge a very small fee for kids to come and skate. But obviously that small fee does not cover all the expenses needed to run such a park.
So these guys are going to man up and attempt to skate from Scottsbluff to Lincoln. That is a good 400 or so miles. I don’t know about you…but would think there will be some very sore legs by the time this event is done! Their goal is to raise $50,000 for kids to have a safe and free place to skate in Nebraska. Several ways you can help out. Donate on their website or you can swing by the park in Westfield Gateway Mall in Lincoln. You do not have to donate a lot cause every little bit helps. And of course if you have the means to give them a little free promotion…share it on facebook, twitter, etc. Thanks Lincoln!
