Skateboarding is more than a sport for these young people; it’s a means of self-expression, and a way to build community in places where opportunities can be limited.
This mini-documentary celebrates the opening of two new skateparks on the Flathead Reservation in Arlee and Ronan, Montana—home to the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes (Séliš, Q'lispé, and Ksanka). Built by Montana Pool Service and Dreamland Skateparks, these parks bring world-class skateboarding facilities to rural and isolated communities, connecting small towns to the larger skateboarding world. They provide a space for youth to come together, forge friendships, and discover their strength. With a board, kids can find their power and thrive in a safe, inclusive environment.
Montana Pool Service and its partners are dedicated to fostering community growth and vitality through skateboarding. Watch to see how youth in these spaces are making these parks their own and building a stronger sense of connection in these beautiful Montana towns.
