The last weekend in August is always the annual Body Surfing Competition at the Oceanside Pier. Matthew and Katie each competed in their different age groups. After a couple of elimination rounds they both qualified for the finals!! They each placed third overall with cool trophys and great prizes from Quicksilver and Roxy.
