TO: CWU Trustees DATE: March 11, 2024
Hello CWU Board of Trustees,
My name is Joey Lawrence and I am the man behind bringing a world-class surf facility to Central Washington. Yep, you read that right, a surf park. Our facility, The Barreled Surf Park, will be powered by the premiere technology on the planet, The WaveGarden Cove. While we took a good hard look at Ellensburg, ultimately opted for Yakima for the drop in wind. Because of the proximity to Central, we're hoping it might be seen as a potential draw to the University to help with recruitment - heck, we could even sponsor a CWU surf team! Currently, we're in the second of three capital raises and looking for successful people with ties to Central Washington. A mentor recommended reaching out to the local institutions Board of Trustees, so here I am! I was hoping for the chance to present to any interested member to see if they can help brainstorm so folks that could be interested in shifting the landscape of outdoor recreation in our state.
Sincerely,
Joey Lawrence
