SurfAid Music Ambassador, Angus Stone, also dropped by the SurfAid stand with his band mate Mitch Connelly, from The Beautiful Girls.
Steve Blanchard, a local North Narrabeen Public School teacher, was our raffle grand prize winner and he walked away with a brand new 7S board signed by event winner Kai Barger. Over $650 was raised from the raffle with all proceeds going to support the work of SurfAid in the Mentawai Islands.
Billabong Pro Junior, NZ
Billabong continued their support of SurfAid International and the Schools Program by hosting our SurfAid New Zealand team at the Billabong Pro Junior, Mt. Maunganui, NZ, during the last weekend in January. SurfAid power couple, Viv and Harry Hill, volunteered their time to represent the organisation and talk to the local surf community about the work of SurfAid International, as well as to encourage local teachers and students to get involved with the Schools Program in New Zealand. The guys from Billabong NZ organised two Billabong gear packs to be raffled at the event, which helped raise $510 to support our work.
