WHY YOU SHOULD MAKE FISH A MEAL TIME STAPLE:

🐟 Omega 3 Fatty Acids: Omega 3 helps to prevent damage to blood vessels, which can lead to heart disease and strokes. It is also essential for brain growth and development. We do not produce this fatty acid naturally and need to extract it from our diet.

🐟 Vitamins and Minerals: Fish is a natural source of water-soluble B-Complex vitamins that we do not produce naturally and need to get through our nutrition. As for the fat-soluble vitamins, fish contains vitamin A (for good vision and healthy skin) and vitamin D (for bone development). A portion of fish is also naturally rich in minerals like iodine, calcium, zinc, potassium, phosphorus and magnesium. Iodine, in particular, is an important trace element in human nutrition and is essential for thyroid hormone synthesis.

🐟 Lean and Rich in Protein: White fish is a fantastic source of high-quality protein, essential for building and maintaining muscle mass, keeping you feeling full, and supporting overall health. Compared to fatty fish like salmon, white fish is naturally lower in fat. This makes it a great option for those watching their calorie intake or following a heart-healthy diet.

Legends of Surfing Shine on Day One of the 2024 Surf City El Salvador ISA World Masters Surfing Championships.
Strong showings for returning ISA medalists topped by Gary Van Wieringen (RSA) and Melanie Bartels (HAW).

The opening day of the 2024 Surf City El Salvador ISA World Masters Surfing Championship (WMSC) saw the world’s best surfers over the age of 40, including multiple legends of surfing, performing in international competition for the first time in many years.

Clean, three-to-four-foot swell built throughout the day, delivering the long, right walls that Surf City El Salvador’s El Sunzal is known for. The ideal conditions allowed for the completion of Main Round 1 in five of the six divisions, which included women’s Kahunas (over 60) and Grand Masters (over 50) for the first time ever.

Gary Van Wieringen (RSA) took top honours for the men today with a giant 18.26 heat total. The 51-year-old South African’s lively top-to-bottom attack saw him pick up the two highest wave scores in the Grand Masters (over 50) division, a 9.43 and an 8.83, in his return to El Salvador, the location where he won the 2011 Masters Silver Medal.

Returning Masters World Champions Tom Curren (USA), Rochelle Ballard(HAW), Rodney Baldwin (AUS), Mike Latronic (HAW), and Heather Clark(RSA) all proved why they own so many accolades, displaying the unique lines and approaches that defined their professional careers and took them to their individual WMSC victories over a decade ago.

Clark is also one of five women in the draw to have placed in the ISA World Surfing Games (WSG) Finals. 1992 WSG Finalist Patricia Rossi (TAH) and 2004 WSG Bronze Medalist Andrea Lopes (BRA) have already won WMSC medals, and both have progressed through their respective heats. Meanwhile, multiple-time WSG Medalists Melanie Bartels (HAW) and Jacqueline Silva (BRA) had solid showings as they made their WMSC debuts in back-to-back heats.

With October being the official down syndrome awareness month we and teamed up 4 years ago to try something completely new to both organizations. We’ve decided to go extreme, have these young adults with down syndrome take surf lessons 🙌🏽…. And it was a success from the first time. This year we have a few new departments from local government coming to join us and jump into volunteer… We have the Human Rights Commission, jumping on board too. I got to share our heart and vision to - Committee Member for economic growth and tourism. We are beyond thankful for all our silent donors, our sponsors , , , Surfing SA and a few will be reveal closer to the day. Stay tuned
