etnies

Lauren Perkins was at the etnies Skatepark of Lake Forest on Friday, Dec. 17, to participate in a Holiday Festival and shoe donation for needy kids in the Orange County area; the event was also a celebration of the skatepark's one year anniversary. She skated for a few hours, signed autographs and had the opportunity to chat with kids who attended the event. Lauren's next mission will be to shoot for an upcoming etnies ad in Check It Out Girls Magazine. She also turned 16 today, so we want to wish her a very happy birthday!

Elissa Steamer is currently in Florida for the holidays, savoring a little downtime before she starts gearing up for a busy 2005. She has quite a streak of contest wins going, so look for her to continue it next year. The goal is total domination!

Have a very Happy New Year's, and look out for more skate news in 2005!
