Billy and Wade are Back!

We are pleased to announce that Billy Midnight, San Diego's best blues, country, boogie rock band will be playing again this year at the 2nd Annual Future of Surfing Fundraising Event.  Renowned local artist Wade Koniakowsky will be painting on the donated boards.  Come out and enjoy the show!


Mark Your Calendar, September 27th!

The Second Annual Future of Surfing happens this September 27th. For those of you who missed it last year, the first 50 people who donate a used surfboard will receive a FREE Biofoam surf blank. Biofoam is the most sustainable foam on the market, using 50% soy oils and mixed with MDI polyurethane, a less toxic foam. More and more people are requesting their next boards to be made out of Biofoam.


$3,000 Rasied Last Year

The boards that are donated that day are sold for amazing prices. The money raised last year benefited the San Diego Center for Children. This summer, five kids will be attending Mission Bay Aquatics camp because of this event.

This Year's Goals

The Future of Surfing wants to double the amount raised last year by encouraging more people to sponsor, support and donate to the event. This year, proceeds will benefit the Solana Beach Jr Lifeguard Program. The plan is to offer scholarships for kids who are from low-income families or participate in community service initiatives.

North County Artist, Wade Koniakowsky, paints on many of the boards donated that day.  His paintings are even more surreal....check out his work at his Cedros Gallery in Solana Beach or online.


DO NOT JUNK THOSE OLD BOARDS!

 Rerip.com has partnered with EcoBuilt Construction Company and Opus Institute in Los Angeles and created another way for you to reuse your boards.  The old beaters that no one wants to buy or perhaps you want to donate a rideable board to someone in need, can be dropped off at the Rerip Headquarters or the day of the event.  (Donations are tax-deductible.)  

EcoBuilt wants to grind the old ones into concrete and bricks, check for insulation properties, and turn into benches, roofs and art projects at inner city Art Parks.  http://www.aclaparks.org/

The program is just beginning, so help us spread the word.  Email meghan@rerip.com for additional info.  Thanks!!
