"Surfboards On Parade"

The Rotary Club of Huntington Beach proudly presents Surfboards On Parade 2018 – A participatory art experience fundraising event, where acclaimed artists are invited to create art on surfboards shaped by legendary shapers.

For the city map and more info:  Surfboards On Parade

Ours in its beginning stages is pictured below. Soon it will be displayed at Duke's Restaurant in Huntington Beach!

The 23 surfboards featured in this exciting collaboration will be “on parade” at select locations throughout Huntington Beach to educate and inspire current and new audiences around the world on Surf City USA’s rich surfing heritage through the cultural arts.

The event ultimately culminates on October 7th, at the Night of a “Million Waves Gala and Art Auction” at the Waterfront Beach Resort, a Hilton Hotel (21100 Pacific Coast Highway, Huntington Beach, CA).

For more information about sponsorships or any other questions, please call Surfboards On Parade Event Manager, Jodi McKay at 714-337-9176.

Surfers Help Cystic Fibrosis

THE SURFING CONNECTION
Australian researchers found that children with cystic fibrosis that surfed had significantly healthier lungs. Doctors determined that inhaling saltwater mist has a powerful effect on re-hydrating the lining of the lungs, which allows individuals with cystic fibrosis to more easily eliminate life-threatening, bacteria-contaminated mucus. This discovery led researchers to develop a hyper tonic saline solution for individuals with cystic fibrosis around the world that mimics a ‘surf session’. We were approached by the local Orange County chapter for Cystic Fibrosis in 2010 with a simple donation request. 5 years later we are honored to be involved with ‘Pipeline to a Cure’, There is an annual gala event and live auction where we have an opportunity to offer custom Artist collaboration Surfboards boards along with guided tours in Costa Rica, featuring surf, golf and fishing.

Cure Duchenne / 2018 Getzlaf Golf Shootout

 

CHANGES IN OUR LIVES

CureDuchenne was founded in Newport Beach in 2003 with a focus on saving the lives of those with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a disease that affects more than 300,000 children and young adults worldwide. With support from CureDuchenne the FDA could approve three pharmaceutical treatments in 2016.  These treatments may lessen the effects of the disease for those with certain mutations of Duchenne, but there is still much to be done to find a cure.  

Since 2013, we have been honored to join Ryan Getzlaf (Captain of the Anaheim Ducks), in the 'Getzlaf Golf Shootout', a two day Charity event. The event brings together athletes, celebrities, and community leaders, all teaming up in support of CureDuchenne.
