Possible Event at UCR

**jackal_lantern** · 08-21-2009 02:09 PM

I was talking with Bombsquad_Manny the other day and we both expressed interest some sort of event at UCR during move-in week when no one has anything to do but goof around. It would also be a good time to get new people into riding.
What I want to know is how many people would honestly show up...cause so far getting out and riding hasn't been very organized out here. Based on the number of people who show interest, I am planning on asking Redfox skateshop on University to partially or fully sponsor the event to get some good business going...but if no one's gonna show up...

Cool, I'm hoping around 20 people would make it worth the guys while for sponsoring. Also, post events people would be interested in participating.

So the owner of Redfox skateshop on University ave. wants to sponsor an event with prizes and stuff if we put it together. He's been trying to get business pumping since its a new store, but most people just order online, so he really wants to get business coming from UCR. In addition to this I've been telling him to cater to the longboarding community at UCR by selling good decks, wheels, bushings, and bearings at good prices so we won't be waiting near the mailbox when we want some high quality gear.

longboard stuff: he already sells Original decks and trucks, Riviera decks, Paris trucks, some Abec 11 wheels (flywheels, gumballs, and no skools), bones and sector 9 ceramics.

He's trying to open up business with Sector 9, Loaded (and Orangatang), Landyachtz, Comet, etc..but he needs more business to set up a good shop, so if you need any supplies check him out, because the more business he gets, the nicer stuff he can sell.

Also keep posting if you would like an event...the more people come, the more prizes I'll bug him to bring.
