We couldn't be more stoked on the dedication to the protection and enjoyment of our beaches that all of our wonderful volunteers have given us in 2014! Our first annual black tie and baggies Swellebration was a huge success, and focused on giving back and thanking everyone for all of their hard work and support! We presented awards to Couch Distributing (19 years of sponsoring our Save the Surf program), and our Ocean's Roar Recipient David Dennis. We also honored our BWTF and others who have made a huge impact for the Chapter (especially Amber Jones!). The event was hosted by Pono Hawaiian Grill/The Reef Bar.
A small token of our thanks included free food and drinks available for members, music from Alan Souza, a huge raffle with awesome prizes (full thank yous coming soon), board displays from Ventana Surfboards, and great people with great vibes all around! Big thanks to Santa Cruz Waves for all of their support, you can view their coverage and gallery here. You can also view all of our photos here! We look forward to seeing you in 2015!
