Join us for a casual beach walk on Friday morning, August 1st, in support of Oregon Shores, a local environmental non-profit that has been working to protect our coastline for over 50 years!

Friday, August 1st, 2025, Newport, Oregon

How to participate:
1. Sign up for the Oregon Shores Surf & Sun Virtual Walk & Run
2. Create your GiveButter fundraising profile, then share it with your friends and family to help raise money. Think of it like a walk-a-thon! Ask the people you know and love to sponsor you.
3. Join us for a casual group beach walk lead by Winter Waters Co-Founder Rachelle Hacmac, along with a handful of Local Ocean employees. We'll meet outside Local Ocean Seafoods in Newport, Oregon at 9am, walk to a nearby beach, and return to the restaurant around 11am. Stay for lunch or purchase some fresh fish out of the seafood case to take home, if you'd like.

The walk will take approx. 2 hours (with plenty of breaks), and the length of walk is approx. 4-5 miles. This is meant to be a fun, community building activity. It's kid friendly! No tickets necessary for the group walk, but we will ask to see that you signed up for the Surf & Sun Virtual Walk & Run before the group walk begins.
