5th Annual Brandon Yates Memorial

Wednesday, May 20, 2009

One of our favorite local events of the year is coming up in two weeks, and this year they switched it around and made it a surfboard demo, team contest, and beach party. We've added an entry form you can download and fill out, and below is all kinds of info from the organizers:

The 5th Annual Brandon Yates Memorial will take place at Emma Wood on Sunday, May 31st. This years event is a Surfboard Demo and Beach Party. There will be demo boards on hand from Channel Islands, J7, ...lost, Roberts, Resist, Surftech and Wayne Rich. We will have a fun team contest at noon. Team J7 is throwing out the challenge right now. Teams will SHARE one board and we will have an hour long heat. One person from each team will be in the water at a time, catch one wave and come in to switch the board with their teammate. A $20 donation gets you the board demo and access to the contest. A $30 donation will get you the demo, contest, Brandon Memorial Tee shirt and lunch!
