14TH ANNUAL GREAT LAKES SURF LUAU

Saturday, September 8, 2018
Jean Klock Beach, Benton Harbor

Now in its 14th year, the Luau continues with a simple goal: to bring the freshwater surfing community together for a fun day at the beach! What first started as a beach party in New Buffalo, Michigan in 2004 has evolved very little; it’s still about getting local surfers, friends, and families together to hang out.

Enjoy great live music by Grand Rapids-based surf band The Concussions (now playing at their third Luau), look for your next board (or unload gear you no longer need) at the surf swap meet, and bring a dish to pass for the potluck dinner -- we'll provide a main course, water, lemonade, and all plateware/silverware.

Don’t forget the raffle (tickets are cash only), yeeewww! Win a new 3rd Coast surfboard, wetsuit, and so much more from all of the rad companies we work with. We’ll have a tent set up with raffle tickets (cash only): $5 each or 5 for $20. We’ll also be releasing new limited edition t-shirts for sale (cash or credit).

Note: this is a free, family-friendly event. You may have to pay an entry fee to get into Jean Klock Beach.

Here’s the breakdown (all times are EST):

3:00: Event start time (surf swap meet, TCSS sales tent)
3:30 - 4:00: Opening music sets, potluck dinner (bring a dish to share: we'll provide a main course (to be determined)
4:15 – 5:00: The Concussions first set
5:15 – 5:45: Raffle (surfboard, etc.)
6:00 – 6:45: The Concussions second set

We’re stoked to see you there!
