The Rise of Board House Society from Concept to Community Hub
Manage episode 451939503 series 2948998
Episode 62 of Bend Magazine’s The Circling Podcast brings together an inspiring conversation with Caitlin and Tryg Bjornstad, the visionary founders of the Board House Society. This nonprofit is on a mission to create not only the region’s only indoor skatepark—Buy also an inclusive multisue space that goes beyond skating. With plans for a multi-use venue that includes event spaces, community gathering areas, and retail offerings, Board House Society aims to foster a welcoming environment where people of all ages, skill levels, and backgrounds can connect, skateboard year-round, and participate in meaningful community activities.
In this episode, Tryg opens up about a deeply personal and formative experience—his time at the Spring Creek Lodge boarding school in Montana. He shares how the trauma he endured and the healing process that followed have shaped his passion and drive to create Board House as a safe and empowering space for others.
Joining us is Trent Bowman, a key community partner with Board House Society and a Tactics skate team member. Trent shares how skateboarding has influenced his life, his involvement with the project, and his hopes for the future of this transformative park.
You Tryg, I recently read this idea from author John David Mann: That is, what we have to give in life, we offer least through our words, more through our actions, but most of all through who we are.
I’m exicted to watch Board House come to life man. In fact, in many ways, I believe it already has.
