South Bay Boardriders President’s Report South Bay Boardriders hosts Big Wave Challenge
This past year, our 9-year-old, all volunteer club launched nearly a dozen new activities in support of our mission “to introduce families, youth, and our community to all aspects of ocean activities, and to being guardians of our local shoreline.”
The South Bay Boardriders Club established the Big Wave Challenge in 2011 to recognize a select group of surfers who chase big waves. Waves must be at least “Triple Overhead” and caught between Indicator in Palos Verdes and Dockweiler State Beach in El Segundo.
Part of the South Bay Boardriders Club mission is to be “Guardians of the Shoreline.” This includes beach clean-ups and fundraisers traditionally associated with ocean-based, non-profit groups. But in addition, we set an example of contemporary sustainability.
The South Bay Boardriders Club lends a financial hand to surfers in our community whose lives are upended by unexpected tragedies.
A core goal of the South Bay Boardriders Club is to encourage young people’s growth, in and out of the water. With that in mind the SBBC Scholarship program was launched.
Grom-O-Rama is designed to introduce kids 3 to 13 to the joys of a day at the beach. Over 50 boys and girls participated in this year’s Grom-O-Rama.
In 2019, SBBCwill have laptops and printers to provide live computer scoring. An electronic clock and horn will signal the starts and endings of heats. Solar power will replace the noisy, polluting generators.
When the biking world, and his Hermosa Rotary, Chamber and Salvation Army friends heard he was hospitalized, the reaction was a combination of admonishment and admiration. Felder was 83.
There are several options for treating anxiety.
