Caption Contest #1 Extension!

Tsk, tsk, tsk SAW heads. We only got two submissions for the caption contest. TWO! So I guess it’s time to up the ante. We’re going to extend the competition for another week, and as incentive I’ll let you in on a little secret: THE PRIZE!

The winner of this caption contest will be able to pick any one pair of the non-polarized Filtrate sunglasses listed in our store and take them home for free! Time to get crackin’ because there’s only a week left.

Check out our Filtrate collection here: http://www.skullsandwings.com/category/eyewear-filtrate.html

Our staff will vote on and pick the best caption submitted. The winner will be notified by email and they can either pick their sunglasses up in our store or have them shipped out to for free. Open to US residents only.

2nd Annual Pacific Festival: OC supporting the Surfrider Foundation

DATE:

Saturday, August 13, 2011
10:00am – 12:00am

LOCATION:

Oak Canyon Ranch at Irvine Lake
5305 Santiago Canyon Road
Silverado, CA 92676

THE CAUSE:

Pacific Festival: OC will bring attention and support to the Surfrider Foundation. $1 for every ticket sold will be donated to the Surfrider Foundation to help preserve our ocean.

And I just thought the showcase of over 50 of independent music’s best bands and artists, including Snoop Dogg, was enough of a reason to go to this one day event. I recommend you get on that shuttle.

Welcome back to San Diego Dylan!

Got a nice surprise today when a long time friend of Skulls & Wings stopped by the shop. Dylan is from the Northwest but lately he is all over the place. He splits his time between land and sea for the last year or so. When he’s on the yacht he’s sailing between Seattle and the tip of Baja. While on land he’s busy with his career as a video production something or other.

 

We’re just glad that he makes time in his busy schedule to stop at our store to say hi. It’s not bad either when he buys a few things. Thanks Dylan!
