Very eventful week & record degree heat!
This year's new art idea to raise more money using skate decks was a huge success! Sold a total of 30 hand painted skateboards. It was a challenge to make a mural that looked decent when together yet still looked good when bought in sections. Austin Blasingame and myself painted Part of the day Saturday & all day Sunday to get these boards done.
Saturday's painting session got rained out in the afternoon. We also just weren't hitting the right brush strokes and enjoying what we were painting. But Sunday came with a very early start and it started to come together. We got so much feed back and love this year for the skate decks. We also had 75 hand painted Flexfit hats painted but several different artists including my dad who came out and helped paint hats live during both days. The sale of the decks & the hats raised a good deal on money that went straight to the food bank of Flagler County to feed those in need.
A ton of friends came out and supported the event. Austin & I even did an interview for FUEL TV. That night we jammed out to Braddigan, Josh Garrells, & Jesse Hines. I even got a little free style action in on the stage. The next few days were followed by a full day of creative discussions with some amazing friends for all around the world. Over all still one of my favorite events all year and it takes place right in my hometown.
