INTERNATIONAL SURFING DAY RETURNS JUNE 20th
9th Annual Event Encourages People To Surf And Enjoy The Waves
PRESS RELEASE
San Clemente, CA (April 1, 2013) ? Short board, long board, no board, International Surfing Day returns, on Thursday, June 20.
Now in its ninth year, International Surfing Day (ISD) continues to unite surfers around the world to celebrate the sport of surfing, while raising awareness and showing appreciation for our coastal environments.
?Part of the beauty of International Surfing Day is that people everywhere can celebrate and give back,? said Surfrider Foundation Director of Marketing & Communications Laura Lee. ?Whether that?s paddling out for the very first time, sneaking in a quick session with friends, or picking up trash at your local beach, ISD is as big as you make it.?
Surfing has a history as diverse as the characters that shaped it; it has grown from an almost forgotten sport of kings to a billion-dollar industry. ISD began in 2005 with a small handful of local observances in the United States and has since expanded to more than 200 events in 30 countries worldwide.
As in previous years, the Surfrider Foundation will be organizing various surf sessions, beach cleanups, and coastal restoration events for people to participate in. In 2012, International Surfing Day participants removed more than 3 tons of trash from our coastlines. ?Additionally, 1,800 people joined or renewed their Surfrider membership and hundreds of thousands of people watched the first-ever ISD Web-A-Thon.
Surfrider Foundation encourages you to start planning now and save the date for June 20 so you don?t miss out on this awesome annual celebration. For additional information on International Surfing Day or to plan your own event, please visit www.intlsurfingday.com.
