Volunteers hang a sign for the 3rd annual Skate for the Troops event at Robb Field Skate Park in San Diego, Nov. 12. Approximately 40 amateur and professional skateboarders gathered to skate a 12-mile course around Mission Bay to raise money for the Semper Fi Fund. The event was created by former Marine Derek Smith, a professional skate boarder with Honey Board skateboards. This year’s event raised approximately $400, along with various corporate sponsor donations from skateboard companies in the local area.
