BAMBOO SK8 & OSF Graphic Design Contest Winners!


Following our business unit on SK8 sustainability, students expressed their environmental consciousness through images on 100% bamboo boards. While all students that submitted designs to the contest get to keep a bamboo skateboard and receive written feedback from the Bamboo SK8 team, these two compelling designs submitted with strong written artist statements and explanations will permanently hang in the Bamboo SK8 headquarters in Oceanside, California, and these two students received prize packs including the newest bamboo street decks and longboards. Thanks to Geoff Koboldt and his team for all their support in running this exciting educational opportunity for the OSF students!
