A week ago we put on a contest to see who could give us the 12 best reasons why Windells Camp is The “funnest” Place on Earth, for a chance to win a pair of size 12 limited edition Windells Nike 6.0 shoes!

The 2010 fall semester has been filled with exciting industry trips for Windells Academy. Students have gone behind the scenes of some of the top businesses within action sports and this week was no exception. America’s leading snowboard factory, Mervin Manufacturing invited Windells Academy to tour their facilities and meet the people behind the making of Lib Tech, Roxy and GNU technologies.
We are giving away a pair of size 12 limited edition Windells Nike 6.0 shoes to one lucky person!
What’s the catch? Last year we held a contest where we gave away a pair of size 14 Nike 6.0 shoes to the person who gave us the 14 best reasons why Windells is The “Funnest” Place on Earth. This year we are doing that again with one of our last pair of size 12 Nike 6.0′s! We are asking for 12 reasons why Windells is The “Funnest” Place on Earth and expect the competition to be even closer this year!
Here are the rules:
Along with the shoes we are going to be sending out a bunch of sweet new Windells stickers! Don’t miss out on this chance to get yourself some fresh new kicks!
Entrepreneur, Lindsay Jo Holmes of MapleXO came to Windells Academy to share her story. Her message for the day: do what you love! Lindsay began recycling skateboards five years ago as a hobby. Today, MapleXO is on its way to becoming a well-established business. Lindsay stopped by to tell us about her journey and offered advice for students who were looking to create their own businesses in the future.
At the end of the day, if it was not for our sponsors donating unlimited amounts of product and promoting athlete appearances to Windells Camp, it just would,nt not be the same. High Fives for the industry! Below are a few videos of companies that have shown great support over the years. Obviously, there are more companies then listed below but we can not show them all?

It’s November 4th in Oregon and the sun is still shining! Windells Academy’s head skateboard coach Jamie Weller took the students to Newberg skatepark for the day. The smiles were never ending, the concrete was plentiful, and the sun would just not quit. All the students were so thankful for Jamie’s encouraging words and helpful tips.
