June 21st may be Father’s Day, but it’s also the day for skateboarders everywhere to get together and ride. Go Skateboarding Day is a worldwide initiative that encourages skateboarders to meet up with other board lovers to hold fundraisers, contests or just to meet.
The official Go Skateboarding Day events are held in New York City, but the organizers encourage others to bail out of their regular plans and go skateboarding for a good cause.
Hopefully they don’t bail on their fathers! If you’re a skateboarder, be sure to see if there are events in your area.
