Cancer is a horrible and relentless disease. The fine folks at Grind for Life know this all to well and therefore launched a Bi -Coastal attack over the weekend to kick some Cancer Butt! Heres how we roll...

The attack started Saturday A.M. in Pacific Beach CA teamed up with the PB Scavenger Hunt Crew (now in its fifth year). The GFL team setup shop at Typhoon Saloon for the day doing our usual meet and greet to educate folks about what we do as well as have fun in the process! Thanks to Savannah,Melanie and Robin for truckinʼ down from the OC to assist in the days festivities. Due to the generosity of the participating teams and sponsors we were able to raise over 3K! Many thanks to Yusef Hussainy and the PB Scavenger Hunt Crew for again including us in a very fun day!!..





For some folks this would be enough combat for one weekend.....at GFL WE DONʼT THINK SO!

Next Battle attack would be that very same night in Boston MA at the Boston Garden for the ALLI Sports/DEW TOUR and ISF Skateboard World Championships. Thanks to our friends and sponsor Bern Unlimited, ALLISports and local watering hole DJʼs at the Garden GFL was able to host the DEW Tour after party! With many of the Athletes in attendance including GFL Board member and Boston native Andy Macdonald, Bucky Lasek, Ryan Sheckler, Travis Pastrana and many more the party scene and athlete attendance surely put a smack down “Boston style” on Cancer. With over 3K raised and a good time had you can be sure Cancer ran from that battle! ..heard there was a Paul Revere sighting as well and you know heʼs GFL Team Rider material!

 Now Sundays are for rest right?..WRONG!..

The GFL Team including Board Members Paul Wisniewski and Chris Conway loaded up the GFL Mobile along with GFL Founder Mike Rogers and hit the road early to setup at the SLAM event at the Volcom Costa Mesa skatepark. The SLAM event was a fantastic family style skate event that lasted all day and featured skate comps, demos, live music and a interactive vendor village. The GFL booth was busy all day with the “spin the wheel” spinninʼ and the kids gettinʼ swag. Once again Grind for Life put another hurting on Cancer while seeing some old friends and making new ones too. Awesome job SLAM organizers for a great event and fantastic day! With more money raised, a ton of smiles, stoked kids and a beautiful day in the park GFL once again put the “FUN” in FUNdraising!

So you see folks the GFL vs. Cancer Battle continues however Cancer will never break the spirits and support of the GFL Army!..many thanks to:
