Winter Classic To Benefit Cancer Sufferer

Fairhaven, Vic Aus. 26th July 2014. Surfcoast Longboarders annual Winter Classic Longboard event will this year donate monies generated from the event to once local Torquay resident Kate Donaldson. Kate in her mid-20's is battling through the disease and has had to shift up to Melbourne along with her parents while she is receiving treatment. The family made the decision to sell up in Torquay and move back to Melbourne in the best interests of Kate. With ongoing regular treatment in Melbourne the family decided they could best support Kate by re-locating to Melbourne.Liam Griggs-Kennelly displays classic longboard surfing.

The Winter Classic is an annual longboard event that Surfcoast Longboarders run with the emphasis on donating monies raised from the event to either an individual or an organisation in need. As part of the event an auction night is being held at the Torquay Front Beach Cafe with all encouraged to get along. Entry is free with the night expected to go through to somewhere around 11pm...

With the heats now completed the action continues tomorrow with finals day. The club is expecting an 8am start at Pt Impossible.
