Longboard for Love is a team of longboarders who wanted to go on an adventure. An adventure that could help change the world. On April 29, 2013 they rode their boards over 650 miles along the coast of California. The purpose of doing this was to raise money for the Bridge of Love, a charity foundation that helps the abandoned and orphaned children of Romania. Longboard For Love was able to raise enough for the education of these struggling children. Stay tuned for our next adventure!
The Bridge of Love foundation that I am going to do my longboard trip for, is doing one of their yearly fundraisers for the children of Romania. Dracula's Dash for Hope (yeah, Dracula is Romanian!). It is a 5K race and half-mile kid's run. The date is Saturday, October 13th at Cottonwood Complex, 4400 S. 1300 E. in Salt Lake City. You can register for the race here.
Additional information from the website: Sign up early and save $10. The kids race will begin at 8:30 am. There will be refreshments, medals and prizes. Costumes are encouraged but not required. The 5k is $25 through Oct. 1st or $35 after. The kids race is $10.
The event is a lot of fun and a great family activity. Please sign up to run. Please, if I can longboard 650 miles, you can run three. Not only is it fun and healthy for you, but it also is a great cause to help the orphan children of Romania. Below is the video from last years race. Check it out.
