Advertiser Story on Scott Werny

Former Surfrider Oahu co-chair Scott Werny was one of the reasons I took up the fight to protect and improve public shoreline access. Without his support, there would not have been a state-wide Groundhog Day rally or the alliance we now have built.

Recently Scott was diagnosed with Parkinson Disease. He sent an update saying he's coping well and appreciates the outpouring of support. But he'd like more people to get behind current Surfrider co-chair Tim Tybuszewski's efforts to raise funds for PD research. Tim is doing an Ironman event in Scott's honor. Please pledge by visiting Tim's blog site, where you'll find more details on how to give.

Here's the Advertiser article link.

Mahalo to Scott for all he's done -- and all he continues to do for the beach access cause!
