Concrete Wave visits the OSF
Michael Brooke, publisher of Concrete Wave, visited the OSF classroom today. Students got an insight into the skateboard magazine business, as well as some awesome stickers, posters and free mags! We are all looking forward to the article written by students in our English course (with the help of mentor Norah Jackson) being published in the next issue of Concrete Wave (released in June)!! Also, a huge thank-you to Michael for sponsoring an end of semester award: one of our students will get access from the Concrete Wave booth at this summer's Vans Warped Tour to the concert backstage area to meet the bands!!!
