Operation Purple Summer Camp Programs are a Success

Premise teamed up with the National Military and Family Association to provide no-cost, high-energy youth summer camps at isolated military locations, from Guantanamo Bay to Japan.

The experience allowed children of service members to participate in inspiring instructional skateboard camps focusing on skills, style, and discipline, which help create a positive attitude in and out of the skatepark environment. Premise sent professional skateboarders (and good friends) Chad Knight, Falco Baltys, Kenny Anderson, and Steve Nesser to lead the camps.

The project has come to an end and the outcome was impactful and memorable for both campers and instructors.

Check out this awesome video one of the campers made at the Yokosuka camp!
