• The Barefoot Wine Co. and S.B. Surfrider Foundation are looking for of-age wave-worshiping volunteers to “take a stand in the sand” this weekby participating in the latest Barefoot Beach Rescue Project day, a series of beach cleanups at various sites on the Central Coast. This week’s cleanup site will be at S.B.’s Leadbetter Beach (Shoreline and Loma Alta drs.) on Sat., Aug. 15, from 10am-noon. But, after the hard work is over, Barefoot will thank volunteers with a celebration later in the evening at the Endless Summer Cafe (113 Harbor Wy.). Volunteers must RSVP to participate and must be 21 or older. Call 899-2583 for more info or visit republic.barefootwine.com to register.
