A New Year!

Happy New Year!

I want to first start off by saying “Thank You” to all of our customers and friends, it has been a wonderful year of growth for Skater’s Choice.  Since meeting our wonderful webmaster (check out his site, digpicphoto.com) in April of last year, who shared a lot of fantastic idea’s, support, direction, pushing (occasionally having to shove) Skater’s Choice was happy to launch the web site this past October!

We are still in development and things are continually changing, I did not realize how many products we really do carry, because I usually just think about what is going to fit in the van when we go to a show!  I encourage you to look at the site, pardon our dust and know that we are adding more products and images all the time!

In looking at the upcoming year, I am happy to inform you that we have already been invited to the following competitions for this year, Denver Invitational March 10-13 and to Ft. Collins Classic March 31 – April 3.  We will keep you posted as to our show schedule, we can’t wait to see everyone.

As we start a New Year full of excitement and dreams I have to share a special event that I was invited to.

For most of the skater’s in Colorado, if you have competed you most likely have had your event photo taken by someone with Local Motion. Deb, Mitchell, Melaina and Brittney have probably chatted with you at some competition.

Since starting Skater’s Choice in 2004 I have had the pleasure of getting to know the Shipwash Family.  For those of you that don’t know them or know about Melaina, she is currently Miss Colorado, a huge honor in it’s self.  However Melaina is leaving January 6th, 2011, to compete in the Miss America Pageant!

Melaina and family invited me to Melaina’s send off party, held January 2, 2011.  My daughter Molly and I went to show our support and to cheer her on. 

Good luck Melaina, you are already a winner in our eyes!
Support Melaina by texting MACO to 24470 until midnight on January 13th in order to vote for Melaina to be America's Choice finalist in the top 15!
