Humboldt Surfrider is collecting donations for a local surfer, Scott Stephens, who was attacked by a shark this week. He required surgery but is recovering well. All donations through this post will go directly to his hospital bills and/or a new wetsuit/surfboard if on the off chance there are funds left over. Also if you can, please join us tonight (No.v 1) for Ocean Night at the Arcata Theater Lounge (see below) where donations will also go to assist Scott.
Listen to Scott describe his experience in his own words through these links. He is obviously a wonderful and humble person who wants to surf again:
