Skate into stardom at BREC

The BREC Perkins Road Community Park will host the monthly “Saturday Shred” on July 9th. Usually featuring bands or DJs, this time around will be a little different, giving the participating kids their chance to shine. The staff will turn off the lights in the velodrome, inflate a giant outdoor movie screen, and screen kids’ youtube edits for everyone to see. If your kids have skatepark videos they want to show off, burn them to DVD and submit them before July 9. Contact Susie Skaggs at (225) 766-9039 or e-mail her at [email protected] for more info. 8-10 p.m., free to the public.
