Delaware Surfrider Foundation hosts inaugural Surf Swap
The Delaware Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation hosted its inaugural Surf Swap in Rehoboth Beach. The event took place Nov. 2 in the parking lot of Rise Up Coffee.
The event featured local surfers selling used boards, fins, suits, surfing-themed art and other types of gear. There were also local artists and area organizations – Delaware Sea Grant, MERR, Plastic Free Delaware, Surfgimp Foundation – on hand selling their goods and offering information on environmental awareness.
