The event was sponsored by Oakley and took place at The Monarch Beach Resort and Golf Links. The weekend included an array of guests who came through to show their support. Gretchen Sheckler Hachee, JJ and Ryan Sheckler were out in full force. They were joined by the likes of Fred Durst, Chris Joslin, Chris Judd, Matt Sanders, Mikey Taylor, and Sal Masekela.
Guests heard from the kids that were helped on the first five stops of the Sheckler Foundation’s 2019- 10 stop Skate for a Cause Tour. Gala guests were inspired by to support the foundation. The Sheckler Foundation aims to educate, equip, and empower their community to be the change in the lives of children and injured action sports athletes.
The event raised a total of $378,000, and many pledged their time, talents, and resources. That includes the donation of tour buses for the final 5 stops of the Skate for a Cause Tour. Matt Sanders, of Avenged Sevenfold, Scott Osterhout, Eric Hale, and Ryan Gale were the big winners on the golf course. The Gala began Saturday evening as guests were treated to a red-carpet entrance and live music by the Sylstra Family. The attendees then made their way into the ballroom for dinner. As well as a special guest performance by the Sheckler Foundation’s Angelique Zaki and live auctions.
