August was a quite month for Skatehive in terms of posting and community initiatives 'cause some of our Staff were on vacation but we're back stronger than ever and ready to help fellow skaters from Brazil in saving Beach Park
Beach park is located in Brazil and was operating as a water park from 2000 to 2003 until it suddenly shut down.
The park was abandoned for years until in 2011 some Brazilian skateboarders gave life back to this place.
They build DIY stuff like ramps and rails all around the park and were responsible for the maintainance. Lots of skaters from all over the world have travelled to Beach Park so they can skate it and camp in nature.
Despite Beach Park being one the most famous skate spots in Brazil, the government decided to shut it down and sell the land without even consider asking the skaters.
The skateboarding community is one of the most united communities on this planet and there's no way for beach park to go down without a "fight"
The beach park locals are asking for our help and we at Skatehive will do as much as we can to help them save their park
All each one of us has to do is to sign the official "Save Beach Park" Petition in change.org and spread the word to his friends/family so they can help too

SkateHive is based on the anti-establishment roots of skateboarding, and is working at taking back control of our activities from the social media giants, who profit off the monopoly of our content.
SkateHive is build on top of decentralized platforms that allows us to own both our accounts, and our communities, which means rather than advertising on our content or selling users meta-data to generate value, we tokenize the likes, allowing us to retain the value generated by our content, for it to be sold on the free market in the form of a cryptocurrency.
This has allowed this humble community to self fund huge online Games of S.K.A.T.E, giveaways, rewards for contests, events, and even help skaters buy new equipment! Everyone is welcome in this community, so long as you are respectful to others.
Thanks for the love LBRY
