Barefoot to the beach!

They've done it agin! Barefoot Wine and Bubbly teamed up with the Newport Chapter for an awesome weekend of FUNdraising at the Seafood and Wine Festival. Thanks to the coordination and massive support of Rachel Swanson, this year's event raised over $6500 benefiting Newport, Portland, Siuslaw chapters and the South Coast organizing committee of the Surfrider Foundation. These funds are directly utilized by the chapters for water quality monitoring, beach clean up activities, educational and campaign work, all for the protection and enjoyment of oceans, waves and beaches. Big shout out to our partners at Barefoot who always know how to market the event and make our booth buzzing with engaged festival goers. And of course to all of the volunteers who donated their time and energy for this incredible event! Special thanks to Newport chapter vice chair, Beth Hawkyard coordinating such a great event with all of our chapters engagement!
