Conservationist Serge Dedina, co-founder and executive director of WILDCOAST, has dedicated his life to protecting the coastline of California and Mexico.
Working on both sides of the border, Dedina has been instrumental in preserving more than 1.8 million acres of coastal habitat. His books include Surfing the Border, Saving the Gray Whale, and Wild Sea.
Join us at 7pm on Wednesday, February 24 at the Emmanuel Parish Hall on the water in Eastsound for what promises to be a fascinating talk on surfing and transboundary conservation.
Darvill’s Bookstore will be on hand to sell copies of Serge’s books, and Serge will sign copies after the talk.
