COVID-19 PROGRAM UPDATE
2/10/21 Update
We are continuing to provide At Home programming options for youth, teens, and adults, and also hosting small outreach programs when possible.
SEATTLE: Our Seattle chapter has relaunched Women & Trans Social Distance Sessions at All Together Skatepark, and will be working with high needs community partners this year to get youth rolling with their own brand new set of skate gear through Social Distance Gear Distribution Clinics.
PORTLAND/SF BAY: Currently we are not hosting any in-person skate sessions in Portland and the Bay Area but are working to make this possible later in 2021.
As for summer, we are still monitoring the conditions related to the pandemic, and currently have not made a decision regarding in-person programs. Regardless of what happens with our typical in-person style of camp, we will host At Home Skate Camp again for Summer 2021.

Fall Update: We have made the difficult decision to not host any in-person programming for the remainder of 2020. Please check out our virtual programs and online video curriculum. Questions?

Thank you for your understanding and we hope to be rolling with everyone in 2021. - The Skate Like a Girl Director Team 5/25/20 Dear Skate Like a Girl registered camp families and interested skaters! We hope that you are healthy and staying safe during these challenging times. This is an unprecedented time and we’d like to thank you for your patience as we work through new challenges this pandemic has presented. Below is an update on the status of our plans for skate camp this summer. As you know, local officials in our 3 chapter cities are starting to put forth plans for various businesses reopening. While deadlines and recommendations seem to be changing daily, our plan to run in-person summer programming has been amended. We have made the tough call to not host in-person programming this summer. If you are in the financial position to do so, we encourage you to avoid the cash refund option if you have registered. 50% of our generated revenue is from fee-based programs such as skate camp, which make our free programs for high-needs children possible. By keeping your funds within our organization, you are ensuring that Skate Like a Girl will continue to serve the whole community, not just kids who can afford it. Skate Like a Girl is confident in our ability to sustain through this pandemic, and we look forward to skating with everyone in person as soon as we are able to. We cannot thank you enough for your continued support and understanding.
