!!!!INTERNATIONAL SURF DAY 2009!!!!

Come celebrate at Habitat 67 on the next sunny Saturday. After being rained out on the 20th, and the 27th… it is postponed until next weekend… but if it’s raining again, it will be the weekend after that and so on. Email if you have questions to chris@surfmtl.com

There will be a BBQ with proceeds going towards purchasing Carbon Offsets. Surf boards are not good for the environment and there are a lot of them out there. All it takes is a 5$ donation and you will be able to feel good about riding your board again since it costs about 5$ to reverse the negative impact of the production process and polluting materials used in your surfboard.

There will be: BBQ (everyone loves a good ol’ BBQ) and a prize raffle – your chance to win an Imagine surfboard, and a few other fun prizes! Great surfing talent to watch all day long and we will also be cleaning up the “beach”. Hope to see everyone there, should be a great day!

2) Beach clean up (the most traditional way to celebrate surfing) if you see garbage, pick it up.
3) Accepting donations for Surf Montréal’s Charity of choice: http://www.surfershealing.org/ donate anything, we will be having a BBQ Weenie roast with 2imagine and the money raised will be sent in support of this great cause.
