Lines in the Sand - A Blog for Surfrider San Diego

The San Diego County coastline is heavily populated in most places. Lines in the sand from beach 'grooming' tractors are more common than nature's beauty, wind driven lines in the sand. Part of that is good because it shows that many people are enjoying our lovely beaches but part of it is bad because it shows we are not taking care of our lovely beaches. That's where Surfrider comes in with a message of CARE - Conservation, Activism, Research and Education. As an organization, sometimes we need to draw lines in the sand on important issues. As a volunteer based organization, Surfrider is you.....so get involved.

The April General Chapter meeting will be at a new location

Our next Chapter Meeting, to be held April 18 at 7 p.m., will NOT be at Forum Hall. Cooley Godward Kronish LLP has generously donated their facilities at 4401 Eastgate Mall for our Chapter Meeting this month. Get directions HERE
Speaking at the meeting will be Michael G. Rhodes, a litigation partner at Cooley who is working with Surfrider Foundation on a pro bono basis in the fight to stop the Toll Road and save Trestles. Mike will update us on the complex legal wranglings of the ongoing lawsuit. Mike will also speak about other pro bono cases he has worked on and about using litigation as a weapon in the fight for social justice.

This meeting location is muuuch more swank than the cavernous Forum Hall...and it's just a couple of blocks north and a block or so east, so easy to find. Still on the west side of 805 - ya can't miss it!

I just wanted to THANK YOU and the commissioners for the meeting held FEB 6 to save Trestles, San Mateo. As a resident of Anaheim hills and one who does comminute that direction and camp in that area for the last 40 years, nearly every weekend. I was there from 6am and got home around 2am. This was LONG DAY for us all. Please convey to all the commissioners my thanks and that they did the right thing for my family and the public. I hope some of the so called elected public official will take note of the turn out and the true feelings of the public.

Support those who support us!

Many local businesses are Surfrider Retail Members and give both the the environment as well as other Surfrider members. These are stores and shops you may already shop at, but don't know that you could be receiving a discount each time you purchase from them just by showing your Surfrider membership card. Go Here for a complete list of Retail Members so you will know where to shop from now on.
