Local Summer Encore: Burning Man–Themed Paddle
Friday, September 19, 2025
Meet 5:30 PM · Launch 6:00 PM
Start/Finish: Ski Beach, Mission Bay (pin in event photos)
Route: Ski Beach → Barefoot Bar (quick toast to San Diego) → Ski Beach
Theme: Playa vibes on the bay — LEDs, tutus, faux fur, creative fits. (Keep it paddle‑safe.)
What we’re doing
Local Summer rolls on with a decompression‑style glide. We’ll launch at golden hour, make a brief stop at Barefoot Bar for a group toast, then cruise the south shoreline back as the sky goes amber. No fireworks (season’s over) — this one’s about the sunset, the crew, and the vibe.
