Our Surf Fest Launch Party on August 16 at El Rio was a huge success! Over 240 turned out for a full afternoon of live music, a slew of raffle prizes, and a fun time emcee'd by Mary Osborne, the pro surfer & MTV Surf Girls winner It was perfect weather and a great outdoor venue. Many of us were groovin' to the sounds of Outer Aves, The "Beach Girls" and Von Iva and enjoying BBQ delights featuring Niman Ranch burgers.
 
Congrats to our many raffle winners who won prizes galore from Carve Designs, SurfChick , SportsBasement, Wise Surf Shop, StickGirl , and many of our other sponsors. The lucky surfboard winners were Sarah Walsh, who won the Guy Takayama 9'2 Mary Osborne Pro Model, and Louise Mills, winner of the Vic Otten/StickGirl Custom Shortboard Fish.
