As we mentioned a couple of weeks ago we are looking for people who want to help us out. You can volunteer as a contributing writer or come on as a full time, featured writer, which ever you are interested in. You can even switch at any point. And as always, we love for photographers and videographers to share their material with us and our fellow fans!

So here are the details... if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Contributing writer:

Basically, this would be a whenever you want to help out and have an idea, you do. 

You would let us know now that you are interested in doing that and we will discuss what ideas you have and how we can all work together.

This would mostly be for Artist of the Week or Editorials 

If you are interested either message us to express your interest and/or if you are interested and already have something you want to submit use the submit feature. 

Featured writer:

With this you would be part of our "staff" and would help contribute each week to the running of the blog, twitter, and Facebook.

If you are interested in this, we ask that you submit a writing sample, preferably an Artist of the Week or Editorial piece that can be used as your first post, if you are selected!

If you are interested in writing, but aren't confident in your writing ability, we would still be interested in working with you. We can always do some editing to polish your pieces.

If you are interested in this, please submit a sample writing piece through the submit feature. 

Photography and Videography

This is flexible and basically when you have something you want to share you send it to us using the submit feature. 

You are ALWAYS fully credited, so please be sure to include ALL of your information you want published is included when you submit: Name, photo/video info, twitter, website, youtube, etc. 

We just ask that photos and videos are either of confirmed Skate and Surf 2015 bands, of bands that have played Skate and Surf in the past, or are actual Skate and Surf photos and videos. 

If you have any photos or videos submit here!

Polls

If you want us to feature a particular poll or if you are interested in what other fans think of a certain topic, just send us a message. If we feature your poll idea we will give you credit for the idea! 

 If you have any other questions, comments, ideas, or if you just want to chat, our ask box is always open!

Hey Game Changers,

Long time no chat! Time has been passing by us quickly this season, or so it seems for us. I feel like every time we are ready to come up for air and get going again, we get hit with another snowstorm. Anyone else tired of shoveling yet? Anyway, as we prepare for this next round of storms (at least for those of us in New York), we just wanted to touch base and let you know we’re still here! And we haven’t forgotten about you or this blog!

I know it has been a while since our last post; we have been MIA it seems this season, but we apologize. Life has been a bit crazy for all of us and time has gotten away. We do hope you will forgive us!

Before we say too much more, we must say this year’s Skate and Surf line up is amazing. We are counting down the days to the festival this year. It is going to be an incredible year, and there are still more bands to be announced. How much greater can this line up get? What do you all think of the line up? From those of you we’ve heard from, you seem to agree the line up this year is great! Who else would you like to see get added to the weekend?

Back to some IAmAGameChanger stuff, as mentioned earlier we have been busy this year. We are still working out who is doing what this year and how we will manage our schedule. Due to work conflicts and life, Sharon will not be joining us again this year. We wish her all the best and will miss having her as part of our team. 

I know in recent years, our following has dwindled, which is fine. We are happy to have the fans who still follow us. Several years ago when this team was put together, there were many other applicants who wanted to join and write along with us. I think the time has come where if we want to continue, we need your help! We need new people to come on board and write about their favorite bands and talk about what they are looking forward to this year. If this is something you would be interested in, please message us! There will be a post with more details about how to apply or how to help coming soon, but for now, feel free to message us and let’s get to know each other!

As always, if you have any ideas for the blog–things you want to see, things you love, things you wish were different–leave us a comment, send us a message, tweet us… just let us know. We love to hear from everyone!
