Honor the moment.
That’s the message that Nike had for a group of youth invited to its Midwest Headquarters in Chicago for a special Black History Month event.
Triple Threat was honored to participate in the event, bringing along six kids from Aurora to partake in the day’s awesomeness.
Not only did the 3T crew get a behind-the-scenes look at cool upcoming Nike products, but they also got to hang out with Nike employees and pro skateboarder Timmy Johnson, pictured above.
For much of the day, 3T kids worked in small groups with Nike employees designing skateboards. They picked the color scheme, design and added their own personal touch to each board. Little did they know they’d get to take home the custom boards.
We have to send a big ‘THANKS’ to Nike for again doing an amazing job in helping us empower urban youth!
