It was back in early 2007 that I almost had the chance and the courage to try surfing. I was about to the following month but I just learned that I was pregnant with my little boy.
I never had the chance.
When I heard that Jonel of Let's Go Sago would be holding something exciting in celebration of his travel and food blog's first year anniversary, I was ecstatic!
A charity surfing clinic in La Union for beginners and bloggers has been organized to celebrate this milestone!
Scheduled on August 15 & 16, Let's Go Surfing will bring a bus-full of bloggers to San Juan, La Union. Participants will be staying at the San Juan Surf Resort and will be learning to surf at Billabong Surf School. Event beneficiary will be World Wildlife Fund (WWF-Philippines). It would also include a night beach party where awesome raffle items from sponsors will be given away such as Bico Australia surfing accessories, Havaianas flip flops, Starbucks Gift certificates, Billabong items, VMV Armada Sun Screens, a free surfing trip to Baler in Aurora and a lot more!
The event is sponsored by Bico Australia, SM, Starbucks Coffee, VSRC Skin Research Center, & Web.Com.Ph. In cooperation with Media Partners Men's Health, Women's Health, Yehey.com, CreatiVoices, and Qtube of QTV who would cover the surfing event for their show! The event is also supported by Havaianas, Geiser Maclang, Travel Factor, DigitalManila.blogspot.com and JumpShotsPH.com.

Well, I am hoping to join since this is the second time that I expressed interest but I am torn since the family has plans of having a brief vacation in Baguio City during that weekend. Come what may, I will surely try this out sometime. :)

Hi Frances,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post! I suggest you go with us surfing since you could always go to Baguio anyweekend after that. Like the next two weekends are long weekends.
YOu could bring your family and friends with us at the beach. If your child is not going to undertake the surfing lessons, it is cheaper; and if he'll share the bed/room with you and ur husband, his accommodations charges could be waived as well. :)
There will surely be no more surfing in La Union next year.
Nice blog! :D
