2016 Monterey Bay Skate Jam Series

Posted on April 15th, 2016 by lighthouseave

On the Beach Surf Shop is proud to sponsor the 2016 Monterey Bay Skate Jam Series! The one and only monthly skateboarding event on the Monterey Peninsula, our skate jams are designed to be a fun and interactive competitive event for riders, friends, and family alike. With a live DJ, product tosses, food, and drinks (and, on occasion, demos, games of skate, and other fun events), we invite skaters, friends, and family to come out and enjoy the day with us.

There are 4 age divisions: 8 and under, 9-12, 13-15, and 16 and up. Riders will be judged based on (in order of importance): creativity, style, consistency, variety (in tricks and use of obstacles), and difficulty.

Sign-ups start at 9am, contests start at 10am. Normally, the event runs until 3pm. Dates and locations are as follows:

April 16 - Marina Skate Park, Marina City Teen Center, 304 Hillcrest Ave
May 21 - Monterey Skate Park, El Estero Park, Pearl St & Camino Aguajito
June 18 - Marina Skate Park, Marina City Teen Center, 304 Hillcrest Ave

How to Report Potholes in Monterey

Posted on April 8th, 2016 by lighthouseave

From the City of Monterey: City of Monterey street crews are searching for potholes with the help of Monterey residents. January through March is typically the busiest season for pothole repairs, due to wet weather and cold temperatures. Over 600 potholes have been filled this year so far.

Potholes are the result of rain infiltrating the soil beneath the roads. Over time, the water can cause the material under the pavement to erode, causing the pavement to sink and break. Traffic loosens the pavement even more, and it eventually crumbles and pops out.

Pothole patching is a temporary repair, intended to minimize damage to vehicles and prevent further deterioration of the street. To report a pothole, please call 831-646-3927.
