Hang Ten Night! Presented by Surfrider Broward and Margaritaville Hollywood
Hollywood, Fla. – February 8, 2016 – Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort invites resort guests and local community members to enjoy an array of activities from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m.
“This is the first ever Hang 10 Night at Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort, and we are pleased to partner with the Surfrider Foundation for the event,” said Cate Farmer, the resort’s general manager. “Jimmy himself is very passionate about surfing, and has autographed a paddleboard paddle for auction at the event.”
Proceeds from the Buffett-signed paddle, as well as locally inspired art displayed at LandShark Bar & Grill, will be donated to the Foundation.
The public event will feature Cutback Surf Band live at the Hollywood Bandshell (pictured right). Guests can also enter to win a free raffle for a second signed Buffett paddle. Directly following Hang 10 Night at Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort, special dining offers will be available at LandShark Bar & Grill.
