I just got this from Randy Laine....who is way too modest to admit that he, and many others played an integral part in raising a good chunk of change to assist our brother Joe. Excellent job by Ross Champion - you guys makeme SO proud:
Feb. 17-18 Oceanside Harbor , Ca. Joe Kenny Freeride Fundraiser
The Event was a huge success thanks to [Al Gore & Global Warming?] actually it was just the great So-Cal weather , good clean 3-5 ft. surf , and the following Sponsors :
