A $10 donation to Access Surf will get you two drinks, pupus and a raffle ticket, the grand prize is a new Blue Planet SUP board. Surfer Joe Teipel will be the MC, we will have a blessing of the new parking lot, warehouse, and our re-modeled and expanded retail space. We will present a new mural by artist Hilton Alves who will sign his artwork at the event. Our shop staff will be on hand to show you the latest Blue Planet gear and we will have some great offers for attendees all day long.
