The surf
has been pretty good for the beginning
of winter on the Gold Coast. Subsequently the
local Surfrider crew are out surfing and missed
the deadline for eNews reports.
Brisbane:
We did, however, get this bit of late breaking
news from Brisbane surfriders:
In an effort to keep spreading the word about
Surfrider's C.A.R.E philosophy, a team of Brisbane
based Surfrider members got active on 17 April
by running an information stall at the Ben Harper
and Jack Johnson gig at the Gardens Stage. Both
Ben and Jack are staunch supporters of the Surfrider
Foundation and were delighted to hear that a stall
would be set up to provide information to the
sell out crowd. The stall took about $270 through
donations and merchandise sales and provided a
range of information including newsletters, stickers,
ashtrays and t-shirts. It was a spectacular outdoor
event under the shine of the full moon and the
crowd were treated to a gem by both musicians
who gave their all.
We were happy for the opportunity to conduct
this stall and for the commitment to keep CARE
on the minds of the concert goers. Regards Scott,
Deanna, Emma, Kristen and Sean
