Bio

I love to snowboard! My favorite things about snowboarding are being in the middle of the woods, laying fresh tracks. I also enjoy rails. I also wakeboarding, wakeskate,wakesurf, and skateboard. I like to get people active and allow them to express themselves through art, music, and phisical activity thats why I have worked so hard the last 2 years in trying to get a skate plaza built in Bemidji which would allow the people to do those thing. Well now my group I set up has finally jumped though all the hoops the city of Bemidji has layed out for us and everyone seems to be talking non stop about it. It feels great to see all my hard work pay off but now the youth has to come up with $100,000 out of the $400,000 its will cost to build the park. I guess thats why I`m here for funding, support, and suggestions.
