SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 11
SURFER'S MARKET & SHE SHREDS CLOSING PARTY
12 – 4PM @ SURF THE GREATS
With our surf season right around the corner and so many fresh faces coming into our community this year, we are thrilled to bring back Surfer’s Market, an opportunity for people to sell the gear they no longer use so that others can get out there and do what they love! In addition, we will be selling a portion of our own rental and surf school fleet (surfboards, SUPs and wetsuits).
To sell your used gear, drop it off at Surf the Greats between Tuesday, September 6th and Friday September 9th. We will help you set your prices and our team will work hard to help you find a new home for your used gear.
In addition to Surfer’s Market, the shop will be popping off for our She Shreds closing party with vibes provided by DJ WAVES, FREE hot dogs and veggie dogs, FREE beer by Rally Beer co., and refreshing Yerba Mate by Guayaki. Our friendly crew will be available all day to assist you in finding the most suitable products for your water needs, and the best deals will be for the early birds so set your alarm clocks now! This is an event for the entire family and all are welcome!
Surfer's Market and closing party require no registration and are free and open to everyone in our community.
About SheShreds
She Shreds is an annual event hosted by Surf the Greats. From the onset, our goal has been to create and support an environment where local women feel welcome to experience Great Lakes surfing, with no cost or equipment barrier, and no prior experience required — just a willingness to try something new.
In our community, She Shreds is a time for surf and sisterhood. It’s when we reset and remind ourselves of why we love to surf on the Great Lakes. And, as we grow our community of lake surfers we remain mindful that the best communities are those which are welcoming, open, inclusive and representative.
