In mountain towns like Tahoe City, CA there's no shortage of ripping to go around, but obviously, during the winter months it's typically taking place on a snowy mountain. Fair enough.
That said... these snow sport enthusiasts still want to get rad during the summer months (and many of them love skateboarding), but often don't have a place that's easy and accessible to skate. That's where the Scotty Lapp Foundation steps in.

Our friends at Powder mag recently interviewed Amy Lapp, the co-founder and CEO of the Scotty Lapp foundation to dig a little deeper into everything this awesome non-profit is doing for the Tahoe City locals.
Not only are they working with CA Skateparks—one of skateboarding's biggest, most trusted build and design companies—on designing a permanent park for the locals in Tahoe City, but they're also working closely with The Skatepark Project (formerly the Tony Hawk Foundation) to get some advice and extra support along the way.
With a pop-up park already in place, and a community quickly building, it's safe to say things are moving right along. And personally, we love to hear it.
