Admission prices are $12 for adults, $3 for juniors (6-12) and free for kids under 6 years old.

Evo Celebrates 10 Years!
Seattle-based evo (evo.com) will hold their 10-Year Anniversary Event this October 21 at the newly renovated Fremont Collective. After 10 years of growth through some pretty hectic times in the action sports industry, evo has established itself as a massive presence both online and in Seattle, offering a large selection of new and used ski, snowboard, wake, skate and lifestyle gear with an esteemed customer service department and an unbeatable price match guarantee.
Many recognizable faces have passed through evo’s doors on past occasions, from professional athletes and honored artists like Eric Pollard to headlining emcees like Talib Kweli and Snow Patrol. While the main act for this year’s event is left a surprise, we have no doubt that the walls will be shaking. Attendees can also look forward to evo’s second annual fashion show, where highlights of 2011-12 winter outerwear collections will glide down the catwalk, along with free skate at the attached Innerspace skate park, USNAPS photos and a silent auction.
$5-10 donations will be taken at the door to benefit The Service Board. Come ready for food, drinks and even desert provided by Revel!
