The Entertainment

Our vision is to create an event that brings a diverse population of attendees from our core surf audience to event goers and music lovers and families. Below is an overview of the event highlights.

The Beneficiaries

Our event is intended to benefit our community along with programs we have been involved with in past and that we are organizationally passionate about -- all profit from the event will be split among these programs.

 
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Lanier provides kids and teens with a safe, fun and engaging environment to promote academic success, good character and citizenship, and healthy lifestyles.
 
Lake Lanier Association (LLA) seeks to protect the quality, quantity and safety of Lake Lanier through education, action and advocacy and and runs many programs to reach that goal.
