August 6, 2004 CONTEST CENTRAL

The Beach Marshall has spoken. There will be no change in heats opening day.
"Chips" and girlies will go as scheduled, they cannot tailor the contest after what
the old guys want. If your heat is schedule for 2:00 PM Saturday then you must
check in by 1:45 PM, no exceptions, no refunds and the SOSC BOD is not
open for discussion Period! End of report! Children's safety takes priority over
"old timer's" comfort. The mothers of the children are ecstatic, they will be
in the contest area to push their baby off. There shall be strict enforcement of
entry fees: no receipt, no enter. More good news! Novice mixed tandem heat
are extended from one hour to ninety minutes to assure everyone a fair chance
of catching their fair share of waves. Amateur boogie heats will be first in water.
Capistrano Ford offered a 2005 yellow Thunderbird convertible to the winner
of the Vons Morang Memorial Perpetual Trophy, however, the SOSC BOD
voted against it, indicating it takes away from the "family aspect" of the contest
turning the event into a "professional fiasco".
