A Great Lakes Surfer Goes to Washington

Posted on May 31, 2009

Recently, I was asked to go to Washington D.C. to participate in Great Lakes Day, a lobbying effort to Congress on behalf of the Healing Our Waters Coalition. Dozens of organizations from the Great Lakes showed up to support restoring our wetlands, stopping sewage contamination and preventing new aquatic species in the Great Lakes. I was honored and proud to represent the Lake Michigan Chapter, below is a video blog I created about my trip. To learn more about the HOW coalition and their efforts please visit www.healthylakes.org.
