There are few sports that connect
its athletes directly with nature in the way surfing connects us with the
ocean- as a result we as surfers have a greater responsibility to preserve the
quality and well being of the beaches that have come to define the lifestyles we
live and love. That’s why this Saturday
the 16th we will be down at the Seal Beach Pier to support the Surfrider Foundation in their 9th annual Ohana
Family Day in a day an effort to spread a little environmental awareness
while enjoying a day of fun and music down on the sand. The Huntington
Beach/Seal Beach chapter of the Surfrider Foundation and Foam E-Z have a long
history of involvement and mutual support, “since day one” as shop owner Brad
Nadell puts it. Brad is a through and through Seal Beach native having grown up
surfing the pier as a young grom, eventually working as an air-sprayer at
Harbour Surfboards and then opening up Foam E-Z to serve the local shaping
community. As a result of our shops history in the area, we were of course
eager to jump on a chance to give back to the community that has allowed our
shop to thrive and grow, as well as helping to spread awareness of
environmental responsibility and education for the place we all consider to be
a second home. In addition to the free surf lessons, beach clean up, and music
stage Surfrider will be offering, we will have our own booth featuring some of
our range of environmentally friendly products and knowledgeable staff, as well
as some free swag and raffles you won’t want to miss out on. Be sure to stop by
from 9-1 on Saturday, you’ll find us under the blue Foam E-Z tent!
