Windells Open house was a smash hit. There must of been a total of 100 or more kids, parents, skaters, bikers, bladers and trampers to find out what Windells was all about. Kids went home with knowledge, Free Stickers and Discounts for the upcoming Camps. For the first few hours the weather was nice and the early go getters were able to take advantage of our outdoor campus including the Concrete Jungle and the Dirt Features. Soon enough, Oregon’s typical weather kicked in and we all spent the remainder of the day in BOB. Either way, we all had fun and hope to see everyone again up at Camp for our Open Skate and Bike Weekends which run pretty much every weekends Friday, Saturday and Sunday’s.
Windells Open House was a huge success. Kids and Parents were lined up at the crack of dawn to hang out in BOB all day to skate, bike, jump on the tramp, jump in the foam pit and just have a ton of FUN. Windells first FREE event of the season introduced the community to what we have going on during what most people think is our off season. Fact is, we have just as much if not more happening; Guests from all over Oregon and Washington came to chat about the Windells Academy, Windells Team, Open Skate & Bike Weekends, Winter/Spring Camps and of Course the Summer Camps! Plus, the lucky attendees were able to get their hands on our limited edition stickers and Camp Discounts Coupons. (HINT HINT HINT: hit me up for the coupon sean@windells.com)
Windells Crew had such a great time at our first Open House, we decided to throw another one, so if you missed out, you are invited to come check it out on Saturday, October 17th from 9am to 5pm.
Highlight of the Weekend:

Like Willy Wonka and His Chocolate Factory, Windells will be opening their Private Campus to all Skaters, Bikers or whoever wants to come, Friday’s, Saturday’s and Sunday’s throughout the Fall, Winter & Spring. Windells is the proud owner of a 53 acre campus loaded with indoor and outdoor skate & bike features and we want you to come check it out.
The first round of BMX/Freeride bike camps have ended and it was amazing. Pictured is Coach Scott with campers riding trails at the Grotto. To say the least, progression was everywhere and the kids left with plenty of new found commitment and a few extra bruises. Chicks Dig Scars!!!
This is what a Windells Van looks like packed to the hilt with BMX bikes. There is something artistic about this and lets make it an even bigger, better camp next year! We went to 5 skate parks, 2 swimming holes and even spent time shredding Windells Campus!
Big shout out to ODI for hooking up all the campers with brand new grips for thier rides. Colors are important and ODI dialed in color schemes.
