Hope for Haiti : Beach Blanket Benefit Concert Wednesday, January 27, 2010 at WRSC Hey Everybody! Like the rest of the world, we've been counting our blessings lately. Watching the devastation in Haiti sure does make us take stock of how lucky we are to live in paradise and play in the waves for a living! We were stoked when our musician friends proposed a benefit concert for Haitian Relief here at WRSC. Heck Yes! We won't have Beyonce or Steven Spielberg like the televised events I've seen all week, but we will have cool tunes by Lyle Watson, Banana Kings, and many others...and give our drop in the bucket to an overwhelming challenge. Tell your friends, and bring the kids. Let's raise a meaningful amount for Haiti ! Check out the flyer: --Pura Vida Joe Walsh

2 days after the WRSC Staff holiday party and everyone is still talking about it. The mechanical bull. The endless bottles of rum. Salsa dancing, fresh mahi mahi, good friends and good times. Fortunately not too many bull riding injuries either... Thank you Hazel, Holly, Catalina, and everyone else who helped make this year's Christmas party a success!
