The waves were performing nicely for the surfers as they gathered to celebrate the 7th. Annual Point Michaud Classic. I was glad that I was able to get down to the beach and spend some time watching the surfers warm up for the upcoming heats and to witness the beginning of what looked to be a perfect day on the waves. Michel Richards who is the Surf program instructor and organizer of the Point Michaud Surf Classic had everything well in hand as she orgistrated everything from the set up of the event to making sure surgers were in place for the group photos and kept the heats rolling along throughout the day. This year's event had an excellent turn out of competitors coming from near and far, including two well known members of the McIntosh family. Richard and Rory McIntosh were geared up and ready to go as they took part in the adult and children's heats. Another well known competitor Eberhart Witt of Kayak Cape Breton was on hand to take part in the Kayak competion.
During the day over 450 spectators human as well as the canine variety turned out to take in this major surfing event.
