On Sept 5, 2018, Surf Equity won the fight for inclusion, the fight for a multi-heat division and the fight for equal prize money across all World Surf League global events. In an email referring to Surf Equity’s advocacy work, Governor Newsom said: “I applaud the courage of the athletes and activist who fought for this victory, and I am hopeful that this will inspire the next generation — of daring athletes and activists with the audacity to challenge the status quo.” New York Times Magazine | Sunday, Feb 7, 2019

Very happy to be debt free!

I was 8 years old when the Harbor District first took on debt in 1976.

By paying off the final loan balance on April 12, 2016, the Harbor District saved approximately $506,200. The harbor commission paid off the loan in a 4-0 vote at the April 6, 2016 regular meeting.
