Little Buddy Hideaway hosts Skate Asbury benefit
Fundraiser supports APSF mission to construct a permanent skate park

A temporary home, complete with a donated wooden skate bowl is coming soon to the Carousel, and this year saw a partnership with two national skateboarding organization to help further the mission. Alliances with Boards for Bros and A.Skate translate respectively into the refurbishment and donation of skateboards to kids, as well as one on one tutorials for children with special needs.
Thursday’s fundraising event features skate videos, music and venue specials, with portions of the night’s proceeds going toward the nonprofit’s Skate Asbury mission.
