World Surfing Reserves has set the date for the dedication ceremony for the Santa Cruz, California, World Surfing Reserve on April 27th-28th, 2012.
The ceremony will officially establish the Santa Cruz coastline as a World Surfing Reserve, joining other iconic surfing locations that have been enshrined including Malibu, California and Ericeira, Portugal. Manly Beach, Australia has also been approved and will be dedicated in the first half of 2012.
For Santa Cruz’s enshrinement, an evening celebration event will be held on April 27th and the formal ceremony will take place on April 28th.
We will be hosting a night of music, drinks, art, and surf history/culture at an evening fundraiser celebration on Friday, April 27th, and all proceeds will go towards the Santa Cruz LSC to continue the stewardship of the Reserve. Join us and meet the LSC members: Hilary Bryant, Jane McKenzie, Mark Stone, John Leopold, Dan Young, Brian Kilpatrick, Dustin Macdonald, and Jim Littlefield and the SCWSR Ambassadors: Robert "Wingnut" Weaver, Kyle Thiermann, Sarah Gerhardt, Jamilah Star, and Ken "Skindog" Collins.
