I had a blast at my first PIF event last year. Got to invest in raffle tix, paddle out with everyone, dive for halibut and eat a ton of amazing food (still working off those garlic fries!).

Does anyone know if we are doing PIF this year? Sincoast (Pat), you have the latest info?

We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.

People aren’t supposed to look back. I’m certainly not going to do it anymore.”

I can imagine that you're rather busy with family and your upcoming spearo tourney, let's find some time to have a brainstorming sesh and find out if there's enough support among us.
Sounds like a lot of us (myself included) are very interested in your event even if they can't fully participate.

The Pay It Forward idea was originally conceived as a one-off, organic event to help brother Mooch fight his battle against cancer (providing both financial AND emotional support). I doubt any of us foresaw it as evolving into a yearly event. But, somehow it did! And it was incredibly successful in terms of helping other members of our community fight against cancer & other serious health problems.

Since 2010, it has raised like $150K dollars—money that has gone directly to the people who truly need it. We love putting on the PIF event and helping our kayak-fishin brothers & sisters. It’s easily the most rewarding thing I’ve been a part of, and I feel incredibly grateful for the opportunity. I’m certain the other Ahulls feel the same sense of pride & gratitude.

With that said, after nine consecutive years of successful events, 2019 is a year to step back and push the reset button.

The next official Pay It Forward event will be on August 8, 2020. It will most likely be hosted in Monterey, just like the last 5 events. But we’re open to other locations if it would potentially increase attendance & generate more revenue for those in need. In the past, it has also been hosted in Santa Cruz & Halfmoon Bay.

Here’s some of the history of PIF if anybody feels like reminiscing. :-)
