They’ll get to cool off with tasty beverages such as Capacity NA beers and Daily Serve dinks and munch on some Wahoo’s Fish Tacos as they listen to some live music, raise a toast to the top Skate the Coast fundraisers at the award ceremony, and see if they are a lucky winner of fantastic partner prizes up for grabs in the raffle and silent auction.
Registration for Skate the Coast is a $50 donation and includes an event tee, a goodie bag and raffle tickets for a chance to win incredible partner prizes. For every $100 raised, participants will earn an extra 10 raffle tickets. Prizes will also be awarded to the top three fundraisers for both individuals and teams.
