Jon Moak Memorial Contest in Malibu / July 26th 2008


Jon Moak was a friend of ours. If you are in the LA area the weekend of July 26th please come out and join us.

Below is all the info:

On July 26th Margaret Herron is throwing a SkateBoard Contest In Memory of her son Jon Moak.
Jon was skating at skatepark in Arizona and hit his head hard enough to shatter his skull and eventually kill him. He wasn't wearing a helmet. Since Jon's accident Margaret has joined forces with The Ian Tilman Foundation, as both Ian and Jon were victims to similar head injuries while not wearing a helmet. Since 2006 The Ian Tilman Foundation has passed out over 1300 free helmets to kids who promise to wear them. This foundation's members are flying out here from Florida for Jon's Memorial to help spread the word of helmet awareness to the west coast kids.

Please come out and enjoy a day of skateboarding at Papa Jack's SkatePark on July 26th.
