Morro Bay Skateboard Museum's Skate-A-Thon Coming Up

The event combines Go Skateboarding Day with a fundraiser for the museum.

Published: June 4, 2017 Press Release

Since opening in July of 2012, the Morro Bay Skateboard Museum has done some type of event for “Go Skateboarding Day.” This year we have decided to combine Go Skateboarding Day, on June 21st, with a fundraiser for the museum…we’re calling it the “Morro Bay Skateboard Museum Skate-A-Thon”.

So here’s how it works, we are inviting skaters from all over the world to sign up on our Skate-A-Thon page and then reach out to your friends and family to make a pledge in your name. They can make a pledge per mile for each mile that you skate, or make a flat rate donation if you will be skating at your local skatepark or favorite skate spot on June 21st – Go Skateboarding Day. 

To Participate:

Please click this link, it will take you to the sign up page: https://anython.com/event/8417/participate

Once you’ve created your profile you can then share the link to your page with family and friends so that they may make a pledge in your name, or they can also sign up as participants and help raise funds themselves. The more participants we have, the more funds we raise. The great thing is you don’t have to go out and collect the donations yourself because everything is collected online!

$75 – Museum Tee 

$150 – Museum Hoodie 

$300 – Set of Kryptonics Star*Trac Wheels 

$500 – SkateWarehouse Complete Skateboard

There will also be challenges for raffle tickets along the way and you can win a $150 Amazon Gift Card! Please text the number 81010 and write @mbska to receive challenges.
