Zion Bmx Camp report
25.05.2010
This weekend Zion did something really cool for kids in Osijek, Croatia. We organized a Zion Bmx Camp, a training camp for all young riders in Croatia where they had an opportunity to learn and train with guys from Zion Pro team.
Five riders from Zion team spent the whole saturday showing kids all the the important stuff they need to know about riding their bike. Warming up and stretching, jumping quaters, jumpbox and spine and teaching them new tricks. It was really a lot of fun.
We had 35 kids attending this camp and they were really eager to learn, so I could really see progress in their riding by the end of the day. Also every single one of those kids went home with some sort of prize. We made a raffle for them , with same number of prizes as number of kids that attended the camp. We hooked them up with lots of Zion parts , Vans and Carhartt t-shirts, caps and backpacks and then we also had 3 main prizes Nokia sponsored us with : 3 Nokia XpressMusic cell phones. One was given as a main prize on raffle , one for winner of bunnyhop contest and one for the kid that shower the biggest progress and made the most effort during this camp. I don't even have to tell you how happy those kids were with these prizes, hehe.
No doubt, a great weekend and we will definitely be doing more of these camps in other cities.
