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.

Killer SAMA Weekend

Hey Crew,
It was a great weekend. We watched friend-of-SAMA, Pete the Powerhouse Goers dominate and win the Muskegon MPVA volleyball tournement on Saturday. Sunday was a full day of kiting and surfing at North Muskegon. We closed it out by sailing and watching the fireworks on Hoeksema's new boat. Pretty epic. Maybe Lesa will even make a movie of the day's events... I'll try to get some pictures posted.

I must say this past weekend felt like we were relocated in the tropics with the killer wind, heat, waves, and chill'n with friends. Great surfing with you Coop's and the rest of the SAMA crew.
