Brooklyn, March 3rd. Forty skaters packed the Vans Skate Space, filling every available spot. The air was alive with ollies snapping, wheels chirping, and bearings spinning. New faces tested their first tricks, while familiar names weaved through the crowd with ease. By the time the night fully kicked off, the park had its own pulse—moving in sync with the crowd.
Working with Beatrice Domond to Strengthen Local Communities.
The Harold Hunter Foundation hosted a Women’s History Month event that didn’t need a tagline. A beginner clinic opened the evening, letting newcomers find their footing alongside skaters who’ve been shaping the scene for years. Later, a photography showcase captured moments of a community in motion: women and nonbinary skaters, fully present, fully themselves, building culture with their boards and their community.
Beatrice Domond moved through the park with her usual style and grace—skating, laughing, connecting. Midway, she handed over a $5,000 donation to the Harold Hunter Foundation, a full-circle moment: support landing directly in the hands of the community it’s meant to reach. The funds came from last year’s “Make It Better” campaign, an initiative supporting causes our team cares about.
This wasn’t about who organized or sponsored the night. It was about presence, momentum, and the kind of culture that’s built when people show up—not for recognition, but for each other.
