Of course we know that you come to Warped for the bands, but we all know we love cruising around the booths. There's merch for every band, labels, charities and various companies who are all ready to hook you up with the latest designs, products and, of course, free stuff. There are some that we always bring out with us and we're excited when we have new ones to join the tour. I decided to give you the first installment of booths you should get ready for this summer.
Vans has just launched a new, nationwide shoe customization contest, Vans Custom Culture- just for high-school art classes! Yes, we are wanting YOUR high school art class to design your own Vans. The contest is divided up between 4 regions of the country and grows from state level all the way up to national recognition. The 4 classes who make it to the finals, as chosen by a celebrity panel, get to send representatives on an expenses-paid trip to Los Angeles, CA to have their shoes displayed in an art showcase on May 15th. Those 4 classes will also receive a BBQ party in their honor at Vans headquarters as well as tour of the office. After final judging, the grand prize includes tickets to Warped Tour for the entire class and a massive $10,000 donation for the school's art department.

I'm still getting a few more questions, so I want to clarify some of those, give you and inside scoop on my goals for the tour and let you have the chance to ask your question in another web-chat.
