We need to hear from you.
Today during our spring member drive, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. The local news you read here every day is crafted for you, but right now, we need your help to keep it going. In these uncertain times, your support is even more important. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership. Thank you.

It seems like everyone is going pink these days in support of breast cancer awareness, and apparently skateboarders didn't want to be left out. Tomorrow, local nonprofit Boarding for Breast Cancer will play host to an 18-mile skateboard ride down the Pacific coast, beginning in Santa Monica and ending in Redondo Beach, intended to raise funds and awareness for the disease.

The event is called Skate the Coast and participants will begin congregating at around 8 a.m. at Veterans Park near the Redondo Beach Pier, where they'll be shuttled up to Santa Moncia. An afterparty is scheduled to start at about 3 p.m. at Wahoo’s Fish Tacos.
