The 13th Annual 100 Wave Challenge for Boys to Men Mentoring is in full swing.  If you aren't aware, numerous Rotarians and Rotaractors from D5340 are involved to support these efforts and there is still time to do your part. Boys to Men Mentoring Foundation based in San Diego is hoping to expand their in-school programs from 33 local Middle and High Schools to 40 by next Fall.  Consider partnering your club with them to reach this goal. 
 
 
On Saturday Oct. 8 Derren Lechuga (San Diego Coastal), Lifetime member Ken Barrett (Past President, RC of Del Mar Solana Beach) and Brett Morey (Founder of Surfers Unite Rotarian Fellowship and Past President RC of La Jolla Golden Triangle) took to the water with the Degree 33 Surfboard team to catch 100 waves in a single day.  Ranjan Lahiri of the Golden Triangle Rotary Club took photos of the event, and the guys finished a little more than six hours later. The team has raised over $45k towards a $50k goal.
 
You can support at-risk teens in a number of ways:

  2. Become a mentor to help teenage boys growing up without a positive male role model
  3. Start a team at www.100wave.org and get your surfing friends and family members involved.
  4.
