Throwforward Tuesdays: Baby Steps to the Doors Opening
Published 12/24/2013 by Rob Meronek
Demolition continues with another small milestone today at The Boardr Headquarters: We all got our door keys. I still can't believe how fast all this is happening, including all the other stuff that's going on outside of our home base in Tampa. We'll have more of that next week.

Construction Progress at The Boardr Headquarters
1/11/2014
Before we can build the skate stuff, we have to get the bill paying stuff done. That would be retail and office space. I can't wait to get started back in retail and customer service again. We'll be open for online orders in just a few weeks!
2013 Year in Review With The Boardr, SPoT Fallout, and More
12/31/2013
December 26, 2012: I'm starting this a few days prior to the end of the year last year. I was super happy with how 2012 went. We turned retail and margins around a few years prior and the health of the business was showing that, Justin Ryan's brand management in our shop was working great, SPoTlight Productions was killing it with worldwide events, the staff was hyped, and I proudly cheered to my partners (Clements, Schaefer, and Porpe) about how excited I was about 2013 coming to continue it all together.
More Milestones at The Boardr: Course Planning Begins and Our First Retail Customers' Support

There's so much going on here from events planning to systems work to physical buildout to financial stuff to skate park ideas that I can't even keep track of where I'm at and what I've documented. We're working smart and steady here still putting our 2014 together while I pause here for an update. Our tenants in the other half of our warehouse are now out so we can start figuring out what will work for our facility to play with our skateboards in.
The Boardr Doors Opening Soon
2/20/2014
For the past couple of weeks we set up our offices inside the empty store at The Boardr. Looks like we need a new place to conduct the behind-the-scenes business since our first displays arrived today. Here are some photos of the progress. We open on March 3rd.
Join Us Monday for The Bland Opening of The Boardr Store
2/27/2014
That building in Tampa near the Bucs Stadium with no sign that you might drive right past? Yep, that's us at 4611 North Hale Avenue. There's no party, no fireworks, no naked ladies jumping out of cakes, and there's not even anything to skate! It's just the door opening up if you want to stop by and check out what we're up to here and maybe play a Game of SKATE on our glorious flatground in the empty TF. Join us for the low key, mellow ass, bland opening at 11am on Monday, March 3rd. We've got a lot of work left to do. Sometime down the road we'll make the real opening grand instead of bland.
