People always ask what SAMA means. It started as kind of a joke. It was a sleeting, snowy day in early December. My friend and I were surfing a swell in Grand Haven. I looked over at him knowing we were supposed to both be at pre-Christmas family functions soon, and said "We are like Self Absorbed Michigan Adventurers." That kind of stuck, and like many of our friends we have a common passion for outdoor sports in Michigan, and we go out in any weather to get our sessions. He replied "Ya, SAMA!"

So it was born, the SAMA logo was fashioned by another like minded surfer friend from Grand Haven. SAMA is for all of you year round Michiganders and vacationers who know, love, and respect all the outdoor activities there are to do in Michigan. No matter the weather you will find us us out enjoying all the benefits of our unique freshwater paradise.

Surfrider on Tour

Greetings from the salty shores of N.C.! I had the amazing opportunity last night to work at the Surfrider booth at the Jack Johnson show in Raleigh...and wanted to let you all know that everyone is talking about the Great Lakes Chapter! Lots of positive comments on the dedication of the SAMA crew!

The show was awesome...and Jack Johnson matches every dollar donated on his tour to Surfrider
