What's up people? We're so glad you're here. Allow us to introduce ourselves; we are the heart and soul behind Pocatello Boarding School. We are Rudie and Amelia, a passionate husband-and-wife team with a story that's rooted in some serious perseverance and passion.

​

In 2020, our world was rocked when we tragically lost our brother. It was an event that could have easily shattered our spirits, but instead, we pushed to let it ignited a fire within us. This profound loss became a platform for growth, sparking new dreams in us and the courage to seize opportunities that challenged us to embrace life to its fullest. 

​

In 2022, during a trip to Denver, Colorado, there was new life breathed into our beings. From the vibrant RENO Graffiti Art District to the awe-inspiring layout of the Denver Skatepark, we felt a renewed sense of excitement and purpose for life back in Pocatello as we knew it. The trip served as a reminder that self-expression, creativity, and community are powerful forces that can ignite the human spirit.

 

Inspired and invigorated by our experiences, we returned to our charming Pocatello, Idaho, with a desire to infuse our community with the same energy we encountered during our travels. What started as a simple flyer on Facebook Marketplace and just one amazing and eager student at Ross Park Skatepark soon blossomed into something extraordinary – the birth of Pocatello Boarding School.

​

Our journey with Pocatello Boarding School is a testament to the unstoppable spirit within all of us and the joy of chasing our passions with boundless dedication. It's a reminder that life's spills and thrills can lead to incredible purpose and meaning, and this is an evident belief of ours that bleeds into our "classroom".

​

Thank you for joining us on this incredible adventure. Together, we're on a mission to inspire, create, and thrive, making a lasting impact on the young peeps in our community. Our goal is to grow a skateboarding community filled with love and camaraderie that will redefine the scene in this town like never before. Thank you for being a part of this exciting ride!
