Snowy Plover Program Seeks Help
The Snowy Plover Docent Program is looking for volunteers to "help protect the coastline so that people and wildlife may continue to use it together." A public tour of UCSB's Coal Oil Point Reserve along with docent training is Saturday, September 2nd, from 9am to 1:30pm. To register, call (805) 880-1195 or email stroh@lifesci.ucsb.edu.

Wounded Soldiers Hit the Waves
The SLO Tribune has a good story about Central Coast surfers getting together to teach surfing to soldiers wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Santa Maria Times followed up on the story also and KEYT has some video. Rodney Roller, a Pismo beach surfer and amputee, can often be seen surfing the Pismo Pier and in the Pier parking lot where he rides his bike to. He's a loud fellow in the Northside lineup and tough to miss.
