“Both Johnny and Elon will be attending the Skate Club's summer program, where they'll have plenty of time to continue enjoying their skateboards, and continue making new friends and exercising," said Cory Chechile, Program Coordinator of the Beacon Skate Club. "I don't consider myself an overly-sentimental type, but these two outings (to the skateshop) were two of my most memorable experiences in all of my ten years of work in the human services/education fields. The excitement, smiles, laughs, good conversation, and acknowledgement for many hours of hard work, captured in these two hour-long trips to the skateshop is truely beyond words.”
