Skateboarding Event Welcomes All Abilities
RSM US LLP (“RSM”), the nation’s leading provider of professional services to the middle market, is pleased to host its 2nd annual Go Skate Day on June 21, 2023, in partnership with the YMCA of San Diego County, as part of national Go Skateboarding Day. The event will be held at the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA Skate Park from 3:00 – 6:00 pm Pacific Standard Time.
“We know how important skateboarding is to the San Diego community, so we’re showing our support for the sport by hosting a fun day for kids of all ages,” said Justin Chaitin, a business director at RSM and avid skateboarding enthusiast. “The YMCA skate parks and programs cater to kids ages 6 – 12, so partnering with the Y helps to celebrate the youth who are spreading the positive impact of skateboarding.”
The event at Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA Skate Park, at 200 Saxony Rd. in Encinitas, will highlight skateboarding fun at any level and feature free pizza and giveaways.
“All skill levels are welcome to participate, especially those who are beginners or are simply interested but don’t know where to start,” said Mike Wilson, program director for the skate park. “Last year it was heartwarming to see how giving back to the community and sharing our love for skateboarding can create so much joy and inspiration, and we thank RSM for its involvement in our community.”
Like last year’s Go Skate Day, new skateboard decks are given to YMCA youth members in advance of the event, based on their demonstration of caring, curiosity, collaboration, courageous, and critical thinking characteristics, which are the 5 C’s of RSM’s culture.
Parents are welcome at the event and all participants must wear a helmet and knee pads to skate. People interested in attending Go Skate Day can register on Eventbrite by searching “RSM” and “Go Skate Day.”
