Surfboard packing goes faster with three people :)

Last night we put some protective packing on the rails of our donated surfboards. Seven were recently repaired by volunteers in preparation of opening a new after school surf program in Sorsogon, Gubat Bay, Philippines. Special thanks to Michael Dayao and Cristine Blanco for packing and the Wahine Project and Sunshine in the Fog for doing the repair effort led by our repair guru Jinan Wong.
