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 Foundation Meeting Tonight 7pm


Hey crew,

Just a reminder that tonight we are having are second official Surfrider Lake Michigan Chapter meeting at 7pm. It will take place at Vince and Marc Hoeksema's gallery on the East side of Grand Haven. We will be discussing water quality issues, water withdrawl from the Great Lakes Basin, and event planning. We hope to schedule some fundraising events and recuiting events for the chapter. It should be a good time, and we always adjourn to my house for some pool shootin. You are all welcome to stop by and take part in the idea phase. Hope to see everyone tonight!

Call me if you need directions to the building.
