Mikey Santillan of Untitled Skateboards performs a jump over Celina Middle School Principal Ann Esselstein at the Celina First Church of God on Saturday afternoon. The Joplin, Mo., group was part of a benefit to raise money for a skate park in Celina. Approximately 50 skateboarders and as many spectators attended the event, according to co-coordinator Keith Gudorf. Local skateboarders have a goal of raising $50,000 for the park and currently have over $15,000, which is nearly enough to begin construction on a first phase. (2 of 4)
