The ESA MARSC will be held in Carolina Beach on May 3-6, 2012. I expect that the adult events will be held on Thursday and Friday and the youth events held on Saturday and Sunday. More information will be coming soon. Check your email regularly for all updates.

New Grom Series

This summer, CNC will be working in conjunction with Emerald Isle Parks & Rec to introduce a Grom Series for area youth. There will be 3 contests offered for kids 14 & under at one of the two public accesses in Emerald Isle. These mini contests will be held on a Wednesday starting at 4:30 pm. Medals will be awarded at each of the contests. A grand prize will be awarded to the series champion in each of 3 divisions: Boys 11 & under, Boys 12-14, and Girls 14 & under. I am focusing on novice surfers, especially those who do not participate in our CNC contests. If you know of any grom who is just starting out, please spread the word. These contests will be free of charge. I will be looking for Kiley’s kids, Lucas’s brother and sister, Brian Carpenter’s son, Jake’s son, along with any of our novice menehunes….Alejandra, Ann-Wallis, Sophie, etc!!

Easterns Information

Easterns® update #4 (Posted Friday, September 9, 2011 @5:30pm)

The Eastern Surfing Association would like to thank you for your patience during this difficult decision making period. We have many friends and sponsors on the Hatteras Island that have endured a most difficult time since Hurricane Irene came. All of our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who lost it all and also to those that stepped in and helped those in need. It truly shows what the power of the human spirit can do in devastating times.

We have decided to move the contest this year only to Jennette’s Pier in Nags Head, NC with the original starting date of September 18, 2011 and the original heats and schedules. Be advised that you are strongly urged to follow www.SURFESA.org for any and all updates on a daily basis.

The Eastern Surfing Association will also be holding a “Boots on the Beach” Benefit in conjunction with the WRV Hurley Pro throughout the week to benefit those on the island. If you have any school items, bedding, clothing, can goods, money, etc. that you would personally like to bring to donate, please do so.

More information will be posted over the weekend, so please check back,

1st Contest

The 2011 CNC competition will kick off with our first contest on April 9 or 10 at Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier in Emerald Isle. Make up dates will be the following weekend. Our contest will be sponsored by South Swell Surf Shop and Volcom. Entry forms will be in the regular shops about 3 weeks prior to the event. I am in the process of setting up online entry via Active.com This will be posted on our website. Stay tuned!

2011 Regional instructions

The following instructions are for CNC members who qualified to go to the Mid Atlantic Regional Surfing Championships on May 12-15 in Atlantic Beach. Please note that the entry process has changed from years past. YOU will be responsible for your own entry. YOU must submit your entry ON TIME to Central Headquarters, not to me. There will be no slack in the deadline. You either enter on time or go to the bottom of the list of qualifiers. It will be out of my hands. You have a choice of entering electronically using a credit card (fees apply) or downloading the entry form and sending it with $$ to headquarters in VA Beach. The same deadline applies.

The entry form and link for electronic online entry is on the ESA Midatlantic webpage. The online entry option includes a convenience fee which is listed on the online entry link. Competitors can enter either online or by US Mail. Mail entries go directly to CHQ, not me. The entry deadline is 11:59 PM Monday, March 28, 2011.

Entrants must have a valid membership thru September 2011. I previously sent each of you a Regionals Eligible list which included the membership expiration of all your Region eligible people. The majority of the eligible athletes in all the Districts need to renew thru 9/30/11 when they enter. Entrants that need to renew their membership should do both online or both by mail. They should not, for example, enter the event by snail mail and renew their membership online. If an entry comes into CHQ either electronically or by mail and a membership renewal is needed that entry will be held in abeyance until the renewal is done.

Alternates should send in their entry and fees and membership renewal via mail to avoid the paying the convenience fee in case they don’t get in. However, if you have a slot in one division and are an alternate in another division, then you can enter both divisions on online, by mail for both divisions or online for their slotted division and by mail for their alternate division. In any event, alternates who don’t get in will have their fees refunded within 30 days after the contest.

ESA website is www.surfesa.org Go to the Mid Atlantic page on the competition tab for entry forms or links to Active.com.

If you have questions, email me ASAP.
