Spotless
What a day, and what a pleasure… Spirits were high and the kids had a blast, both in the water and on the beach cleaning up.
Tash cooked up a frenzy on the mic as all gathered to hear who had won the surf contest. Prizes were given away, food supplied for all the hungry mouths and of course water and energy drinks flowed too. We all did our part to clean up the beach too, Karl even found a little model of Tigger from the cartoon Winnie the pooh. Ida helped 'up-cycle' some of the trash into cool little shakers for the kids who had the pleasure of listening to some sweet tunes by Roland Albertson (plus family on the drums) and a set by DJ Just Be…? Overall it was an amazing day, great camaraderie and a joy to be doing our bit. Shoh, and did that beer go down well afterwards!
Well done to Pat for organising the event and to all the sponsors too. Not to forget the guys who put together the good tunes and everybody else who collected the kids, scored the contest, got the word out there, cleaned the beach, then cleaned again… you are all champions.
Muizenberg Beach Cleanup
We had the pleasure of getting involved and helping towards this beach cleanup at Muizenberg by designing the poster! Click on the poster for the high res version.
As part of the Surfrider Foundation's Ocean Initiatives campaign, the aim is to raise awareness, help protect our environment and keep our oceans clean.
The Beach Cleanup is on Sunday the 27th of March and kicks off at 10:30am, at the Lifestyle Surf Shop.
Get there earlier and support the Development surfers Interclub Tag-team Challenge. Taking part are kids from Isiqalo, Palama Metsi, Surf Shack, and Wave Crush. Starts at 8am.
There is a movie on global warming at the Lifestyle Surf Shop starting at 10am.
At 11.30am there will be fresh acoustic surf rock from Roland Albertson. Although based in Joburg, Roland's heart lives in Cape Town and his love of the sea is evident in his passion to play at this Sunday surf and sea event. Roland recently won Best Male Artist in the International Acoustic Music Awards - and is just one hell of a nice guy - he also says he is happy to give anyone surf lessons for the rest of the day...
This will be followed by a smooth DJ set from DJ Just Be...?
In addition there are also awesome gear giveaways and spot prizes up for grabs!
A huge shout out goes to Patricia Issertes for organising the event, awesome work Pat! And if you feel inspired to host your own event, visit surfrider and initiativesoceanes for more information on how you can organise your own beach cleanup!

We would have loved to have been at the Design Indaba this year, it sounded like it was amazing! Can't wait for next year.
We did however participate in Absa's 72 hrs of creativity competition. And we won ourselves a brand new external hard drive. Result!
