HALLOWEEN RIP SATURDAY OCTOBER 27

Guys and Ghouls, this Saturday, October 27th, longboarders from all across the city will unite to shred the streets of Calgary. Slicing and dicing their way through the traffic of 17th ave, and 10th street and everything in between. Candy smashing the desperate pedestrians on the way! The only way to save yourself from this horror is to be the cause of it.

Come meet at Millennium skatepark at noon. There will be a brief meeting (with candy) and then we will flood the streets of Calgary in Critical Mass fashion. ****There will be prizes for best costumes****,

anyone not in costume will be used as a sacrificial offering to one lucky pagan god. If you can afford it please help by bringing candy to throw at people.

LONGBOARDS, SKATEBOARDS, MOUNTAIN BOARDS, DIRTSURFERS, and the odd bicycle if its cool are all welcome. I would say rollerblades but that could be trouble.... See you there!
