Hi all,
I wanted to set up a meetup for a organization that I've volunteered with before. It's a organization that helps people with disabilities experience the joy of riding a wave for a day. They will be having a event on June 8th in Santa Monica. Here's what's on their website:
"Life Rolls On is dedicated to improving the quality of life for people affected by spinal cord injury" and other disabilities.
They host "epic surf and skate events for wheelchair athletes."

Their videos show what they're about

Instructions for signing up: Registration is now open on their website: https://liferollson.org/santamonica
On the registration, please put down to join either the blue, green, and purple teams. Please also put "South Bay Surf Club" in the field “are you volunteering with an organization?” I've talked with LRO staff and they will try to group people from the South Bay Surf Club together.
Please note that registration is currently open.
Please see their FAQ section for more information: https://liferollson.org/volunteer-faq
They will serve lunch for all volunteers.
I volunteered before and it was such a amazing experience to see the joy in the surfers catching their first wave. I definitely recommend this to everyone to try out.
