Slavic Village hosts eS Game of SKATE - East Meets West On Saturday May 17th at 4:00pm skateboarders from both sides of the Cuyahoga will be meeting on the streets of Historic Slavic Village for a tournament of flatground SKATE. Sponsored by eS Footwear, the Game of SKATE is similar to "HORSE" in basketball. Skateboarders will go head-to-head to perform tricks. When one skater completes a trick others must repeat it or take a letter from the word SKATE. Skaters who collect all 5 letters drop out, and the winner proceeds to the next round.
The eS Slavic Village Game of SKATE is taking place on E. 55th St. between Broadway and Dolloff. Parking is available in the parking lot off Broadway. Skaters from all around northeast Ohio will come out to compete or show support for skateboarding in Cleveland.
Prize packages from sponsoring skateboard shops include decks, wheels, trucks, apparel, and eS Shoes. Prizes are awarded to the top 5 finalists. The overall winner of this eS Game of SKATE in Slavic Village will have the opportunity to attend the semi-finals in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Any one interested in entering the tournament can register online at Slavicvillage.org or can register the day of the event. There is a $5 registration fee due the day of the event.
