WIN – Active Kids Books Giveaway

September 15th, 2012


Chad Kolcze, self-confessed passionate action sports enthusiast, and author of children’s book series Active Kids Books recently skateboarded from Parliament House, Canberra, all the way to Thredbo in the push to raise awareness about childhood obesity and lowered literacy in boys. The skate is part of the Life’s Awesome Campaign and finished up last week in Thredbo to a very warm welcome.

Chad employed 5 different skateboards over the monumental trip and made the 300 km journey in 6 days battling dehydration, severe winds, gravel rash and traffic the whole way! When asked about the trip, “Rad Dad” Chad said, “We are aiming to inspire kids to dream big and live a healthy active lifestyle through positive ‘roll’ modelling. Expressing the positive side of life and walking the talk for kids health was what ‘Life’s Awesome’ campaign was all about.”

Thanks to AKB we have four copies of Chad’s illustrated children’s books to give away. To win, and get your kids stoked out all you need to do is comment below and let us know what your best childhood memory of getting out and getting dirty in the outdoors is! Pretty easy really! We will give the books to the first four entrants!
