San Clemente, CA (January 12, 2012) – Grab your surfboard and get ready to celebrate
International Surfing Day on Wednesday, June 20th.

Now in its eighth year, International Surfing Day unites surfers from around the
world to celebrate of the sport of surfing.  What began in 2005 with only just a
small handful of local observances in the United States has since exploded to more
than 200 events in 30 countries worldwide.

In addition to catching some waves, surfers around the globe are encouraged take
some time to give back to our oceans, waves and beaches. As in previous years, the
Surfrider Foundation will be organizing various beach cleanup and coastal restoration
events. In 2011, [International Surfing Day](https://greenlivingguy.com/2012/05/international-surfing-day-with-kelly-slater-and-gilmore/)
participants collected more than 5,000 bags of trash worldwide.
