It has been announced that Newquay will host 'Queen of the Surf', a women only surf day in aid of "Think Pink" for Breast Cancer, for the fourth year running
by George Mojo
09/06/2008:// With the stunning backdrop of Newquay’s famous Fistral Beach, these days will be a chance for women to learn the basics or improve their surfing technique with top instructors and whilst having fun will be able to give something back to such a worthwhile charity.
The ‘Queen of the Surf’ day is being organised by Hibiscus Surf School and is being sponsored by Sola UK who have kindly donated goody bags for each of the women attending to take away as a reward for their hard days surfing.
Each event will include over 4 hours worth of tuition with highly experienced instructors in small groups, which will be separated into beginners and improvers so each surfer can get the most out of the lessons.
There will also be time for a well-deserved lunch break and presentation at the end of the day. Each group will be filmed and a free DVD presented to each surf student as a lasting memory of their day and as a way of tracking their progress and ability.
Prizes will be awarded, kindly sponsored by local companies.
“This is the fourth year we have organised the event and have raised nearly £1800 for the appeal. We aim to make it fun for all the family but also all profits raised will be donated to Breast Cancer Awareness,” said organiser Frances Carter.
The date for the ‘Queen of the surf’ event is Saturday 12th July 2008.The surf lessons will be held on South Fistral Beach, Newquay.
