Surf Flicks and More

International Surfing Day (June 20th) is coming up soon, and there are a few exciting events going on next week. If you haven't heard of this holiday before, don't worry -- it was established in 2004 by Surfing Magazine and The Surfrider Foundation, as a world-wide celebration of the sport of surfing. Maybe this is where marketing folks got the idea for National Camping Month? In any case, I don't know about you, but I'll be inquiring to the higher ups here to see if we have International Surfing Day off.


For East Coasters, come join us at the film premiere of Ben Keller's BlueGreen on June 18, 7pm at Leavitt Theatre in Ogunquit, ME. Tickets are $8 at the door.



There will be more surfing fun on Saturday, June 20 from 6pm to 9pm. Be there or be square, and you'll enjoy equipment to demo (if the waves gods comply), bbq, hotdogs, desserts, live music, bonfire, raffles on the beach at the end of Union Ave in Old Orchard Beach.

As a reward for those who have read this far, check out this stunning shot in HD of a breaking wave (thanks kottke.org)
