The waves were small but that did not dilute any enthusiasm. Annual Global Celebration of the Sport of Surfing and Beach Environments takes place on June 21st. Call it a day to give thanks, get wet and go surfing; International Surfing Day returns this June 21st. Founded in 2005, International Surfing Day was created to allow surfers and other wave riding enthusiasts to come together in a global celebration of surfing. Whether you are a novice or a pro, shortboarder or longboarder, grom or granddad, this is the day for surfers worldwide to wax up, paddle out and catch a wave. International Surfing Day also provides surfers with an opportunity to give thanks to Mother Nature for providing us these waves by giving something back, so once again the Surfrider Foundation will be hosting beach clean-up events across the country. “June 21st is the longest day of the year, so there’s no reason to get out there, get wet and then give something back,” says Matt McClain, Surfrider Foundation spokesperson.   winter wall  Membership –Don’t forget to renew.
