Thanks Spokane and Spread the Shred!

Spread The Shred beckoned us to Spokane, WA Saturday making the 4 1/2 hour drive fly by. Spokane is a special place really, a large city with a small-town feel and a close-knit snowboard community. Several local ski-hills including Mt. Spokane, Lookout and 49 Degrees North donated a ton of day passes and even a couple of season's passes to the raffle and kids were stoked! 

Thanks for everyone who came out to Spread the Shred and support SOS! Sponsors came out in full force to support the cause and I hope everyone left with a little something to take home.
 The DWD Team Video started the night off! The Garland Theater's sounds system proved plenty capable off handling the upbeat soundtrack. The energy from the crowd was amazing, even the surliest Canadians would have been heart-warmed. Mind the Video Man closed the night off and we were truly moved by the reception from the crowd and felt like we had some long-time supporters in the audience. Spokane seems like our kind of town, and we'll be back next year for sure!

Big thank you's to Zachary and Martin for putting on one awesome show, even cutting snowflakes and carving pumpkins to make the night extra special. Also thanks to Frequency, Snowboarder, Lib Tech, Arbor, ThirtyTwo, all of the local shops that came to show their support, SOS, and most of all the nicest most down-to-earth rippers who make Spokane one of my favorite new places to visit!
