Conference to Include Surfers, Developers

Surfers, environmentalists and others who want to save the waves and beaches will meet July 21 at Pepperdine University in Malibu for the GeoSurf Symposium 1990.

According to organizers Glenn R. Hening and John Van Hamersveld, the conference will be the first to bring together all groups that have a vested interest in the health of the coastline, from wave riders and makers of wet suits to ecologists and developers.

Hening, who founded the Surfrider Foundation, a surfer activist organization, and Van Hamersveld, a graphic designer whose work includes the classic poster for the surfing film “The Endless Summer,” said they hoped the symposium would function as a leadership seminar for all those concerned about the future of waves and beaches.
