The National Guard is sponsoring the 2010 Dew Tour! The tour is made up of five major events spanning June through October. For 2010, the first two stops will focus on single sports: the Skate Open in Boston June 25-26 and the BMX Open July 23-24 in Chicago. The next three stops of the tour—Portland, Salt Lake City and Las Vegas—will feature skateboarding (park and vert), BMX (park, vert and dirt) and freestyle motocross.

There is a $2.5 million prize—the largest in action sports—and an additional $1 million bonus pool based upon year-end standings. The Dew Tour is broadcast on NBC, MTV2 and USA Network and will feature the top athletes in each sport discipline such as Shaun White (skateboard vert), Ryan Sheckler (skateboard park) and Jamie Bestwick (BMX vert). Each Dew Tour event also includes a live concert featuring top artists.

The National Guard will be at each event with a booth in the Festival Village where you can learn more about the Guard, talk to a Soldier, get a picture and autograph from a Dew Tour athlete, grab some free gear and participate in the National Guard Challenge for a chance to win a custom Guard skateboard.

Additionally, the National Guard will be providing exclusive videos featuring interviews with the athletes and a look back at their "Path to Podium." The National Guard's "Path to Podium" videos take an in-depth look at the race for the Dew Cup in each of the five Summer Dew Tour sports disciplines: skate vert, skate park, BMX park, BMX vert and BMX dirt. This exclusive content will be featured on this page.
