Rock the Cradle

Thursday November 6, 2008
This weekend, the Rock the Cradle for Johnny Romano Memorial Contest will be held November 9th at the Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark in Houston, Texas. This is an invitational event for skaters. This skate park boasts the world's largest cradle, so come watch some pros rock it. The event runs from noon to 4 pm, and it's free, though they are hoping for $10 donation from each person, or a blood donation. The Gulf Coast Blood Center will be on site taking donations.

Johnny Romano was a ten year old skater, who recently passed away from cancer.
