The RFK Stadium Skatepark was a Work of Art! – by Pia Saclauso

On Sunday, August 20th, Skate Girls Tribe was stoked to be a part of the RFK Stadium Block Party located in Washington, DC! Events DC has teamed up with a national visual artist, Naturel, who renovated the whole skatepark. The block party was to celebrate his project completion and included skateboarding, various family-friendly activities, live music, and a ton of giveaways!

The freshly renovated park was one jaw-dropping masterpiece! Skaters were totally hyped to be shredding Naturel’s piece of art that is collectively ours as a community!

A ton of visitors came out to experience the grand opening. It was rad to see skaters grind on rails, do kickflips off ramps, and ollie off stairsets! It was a colorful experience which truly captures the vibe and the culture of DC!

Skating RFK park changes the way people see art – it is not just meant to be looked at, but also to be experienced. Photo 20-08-2017, 10 34 50 PM

It is Christamas!!! By Ekaterina Nekrasova, 6th grader

longboarding

On Tuesday, December 24th, Skate Girls Tribe met up for a pre-Christmas meeting/party. People started coming in at 11:30 AM. As  we waited for the other people to arrive, we colored in printed out drawings.

Skate Girls Tribe XMas party

Once everyone came, we moved on to the main project, warrior armor. We got inspired by modern-day “warriors”, like Katniss from the Hunger Games. Some people made turtle shells, others made crowns and jewelry.

Later, we ordered pizza and had lunch.

We invented new game and called it "Tangerines on strings"

Afterward, we played a game in which we had to eat one clementine that was hanging on a string. (without using our hands) The victors were given the advantage of picking their presents first in the gift exchange.

Gift exchange

After the gift exchange, we all went outside to longboard. Some girls already knew how to longboard and some did it for the first time. We helped and supported each other. The party was a great success, and everyone had a lot of fun.

Thank you to everyone who came, thank you to Zoe who helped to organize the party, and thank you for the wonderful gifts. You all rock!
