BOISE, Idaho - U.S. Senator Jim Risch, senior member and former chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, announced the selection of 7B Boardshop in Sandpoint as the Idaho Small Business of the Month for August 2024. 7B Boardshop will be recognized for its contribution to Idaho in the Congressional Record of the U.S. Senate.

“North Idaho is full of excellent places to skate in the summer and snowboard in the winter. 7B Boardshop has all the equipment for Idahoans and visitors to enjoy our beautiful state,”said Risch.“Owner and native Idahoan Rory Whitney also helped form the Bonner County Skatepark Association to expand Sandpoint’s skate park and bring the community together.”

Idaho is consistently ranked one of the best places in the country to do business. Each month, Senator Risch selects an Idaho small business that exemplifies the Idaho values of hard work, entrepreneurial spirit, and exceptional commitment to community.
