BLVD's first year of business is in the history books now! In some ways it went so fast, in other ways it's hard to believe we've only been around for a year...

I'd like to personally thank everyone that's supported us. Its not easy being the "new guy" sometimes, but all of you made it a lot of fun!

When I opened the doors a year ago, I had one goal in mind. That was to stay true to skateboarding every way we can and do what we do with pride.  I think we've achieved that and will continue to into the future.  BLVD is a genuine skateshop owned and operated by genuine skateboarders. There is no other way.  Thanks for 2009, see you all in 2010!!
