Surf Contest registration opens June 15

Registration for the annual Surf Contest, to be held at Naval Base Ventura County, Point Mugu, Aug. 18-19, opens Friday, June 15, at www.active.com.

This event draws world-class surfers and is open to the general public both days. The Las Posas Gate will be open from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, and shuttle buses will run continuously between the parking lots and the event site until 5 p.m.

All persons coming on base must carry their photo ID with them at all times. Persons and vehicles are subject to search. Pets are not allowed; service animals clearly marked as such will be permitted. Cameras with 100 millimeter lenses or smaller will be allowed. Anyone with a larger lens will be required to register with Public Affairs as “media.”

Food and drink will be sold by on-base Morale, Welfare & Recreation vendors. All sales are cash only and ATMs will not be available, as the beach is in a remote location.

Vendors must register no later than July 6 to participate. For more information, call 982-5395.
