Tom Sloan is the consummate skateboarder's skateboarder. A California transplant to the Mountain State of West Virginia, Tom is a skilled park rider, street skater, slalom racer, longboard racer... That is to say that if it's skateboarding, then Tom's in! PUSH To End Alzheimer's is Sloan's opus. The event has grown from a ride to raise support in conjunction with the Memory Walkto a full on skateboard race and a manual contest and more. Marc's Board Shop has stepped up to sponsor part of the skate events and West Virginia native and accomplished skateboard artist Don Pendleton was kind enough to donate art for the shirts. You can join Tom's team here. Join us on Saturday October 30 at Appalachian Power Park in Charleston, WV. Registration is at 9:30AM.
