Oceanside’s finesta Man wiTH a vision DR.KENNEthC.huRSt

photoS: zaCh CordnerwordS: aaron SChmIdt

you can’t find a better pillar of the local community than dr. Kenneth c. hurst. as principal of oceanside high school, he single-handedly spearheaded a movement within the local educational system promoting accountability. his no-nonsense approach to education stems from his years of experience as a drill instructor and satellite communications instructor in the united states marine corps.

a true leader in every sense of the word, dr. hurst’s contributions to oceanside’s school district are second to none. he is dedicated to the future of our students by helping them achieve their goals and dreams.

Grammy Award-winning Switchfootcelebrates 10 years of giving back The 10th Anniversary Switchfoot Bro-Am surf contestand concert returns to Moonlight Beach in Encinitas onSaturday, July 12. An annual event near and dear toSwitchfoot’s heart, the free beach day was created togive back to the San Diego community while alsobenefiting local children’s charities. Since its inceptionin 2005, the Bro-Am has raised more than $900,000 insupport of local youth, and the members of Switchfootrecently created the Switchfoot Bro-Am Foundation tocontinue their mission of supporting at-risk, homeless,and street kids year-round.

Bro-Am weekend kicks off on Friday, July 11, with theBro-Am Auction Night Soiree at which guests will savorsignature dishes & sips from San Diego’s leadingrestaurants. The evening will also include stellar silentand live auctions, opportunity drawings, and an exclusivelive music performance.

On Saturday July 12, the 10th Anniversary SwitchfootBro-Am presented by Hurley will feature a corporatesurf team contest, live concert headlined by Switchfoot(complete lineup announced soon), and nerf surfjousting exposition. This year’s event will also welcomeback the 3rd annual Rob Machado Bro Junior, open toyoungsters ages 16 and under who compete on one ofMachado’s boards.

Thanks to Bro-Am’s relationship with Hurley H2O, the

beach experience is a “single-use plastic waterbottle-free event.” Attendees are encouragedto bring a re-usable water bottle to fill upat the H2O station for free, and HurleyH2O provides stainless steel bottleswith funds raised supporting nonprofiteco-partners.

The Rob Machado Foundation, dedicatedto teaching youth about their impact on theenvironment, will once again have a team of surfersand environmentalists managing waste at Bro-Am.The Green Team of volunteers will educate attendeeson proper sorting of trash and recyclables, and willensure that as much waste as possible is diverted fromthe landfill.

“The Bro-Am has been my favorite day of the year eversince we started it back in ’05,” notes Switchfoot’s JonForeman. “To see our hometown come together to helpout a deserving group of kids is an incredible experience— surfing, music, and the San Diego scene at its best.”

Bro-Am weekend festivities will round out with a specialscreening of Fading West at La Paloma Theatre inEncinitas Saturday evening. Complete Bro-Am weekenddetails, including lodging, parking, and sponsorshipinformation, are available on the Switchfoot Bro-Am Website: www.switchfoot.com/bro-am.

people go through each day filled with fear and excuses, Jeremy has found a way to inspire others to open their minds and truly live.

On July 27 2014, Jeremy’s next adventure will take him to the ocean for the 18th annual Molokai2Oahu Paddleboard Race, where he will join dozens of other athletes on a 32-mile journey across the Hawaiian Islands’ Ka’iwi Channel. To prepare for the grueling physical challenge, Jeremy will collaborate with a team of Tri-City Medical Center doctors and care professionals specializing in everything from personal training to shoulder preservation to hyperbaric oxygen treatments; in the months leading up to the race.

Beyond tackling daunting athletic feats and strenuous training regimens, Jeremy has dedicated his life to encouraging and motivating others. He has appeared on TEDx and regularly speaks to students and professional sports teams.

To follow Jeremy on his Journey check out:

In 2001 action sports athlete Jeremy McGhee from Cardiff, California was struck riding his mo-torcycle, leaving him in critical condition. That incident was a moment of fate, pushing Jeremy to confront mortality and the life he chose to live. He would later recount that the street where he fell felt so warm, almost inviting him to close his eyes and sleep a while. It was as if death was seducing him, but Jeremy's resilience kicked in and he decided to fight for his life.

If the motorcycle accident wasn’t traumatic enough, Jeremy faced major complications in his recovery when his spinal cord was at-tacked by a life threatening staph infection. Af-ter emergency surgery and intense treatments at Tri-City Medical Center’s Wound Care and Hyperbaric Medicine Center, Jeremy was back

at it again, resilient as ever.

Since then Jeremy has been taking life by storm. Instead of letting traumat-ic accidents depict the out-come of his future, Jeremy chooses to “challenge” his audience. He believes that “when you stop making fear-based decisions, you begin

to live an inspired life.” In a world where
