The "Skate the Hill" session will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at Ernie Howlett Park, 25851 Hawthorne Blvd. in Rolling Hills Estates.
"For four hours kids can come and skate ramps, rails, and grind boxes. We’re going to have pros and local skate shops coming to do demos and hand out lots of cool stuff,” said Ellen November, director of Skatepark PV, which is putting on the event, in a previous interview.
