While summer weather in Nova Scotia can be hot, it’s certainly not swell-tering…Ba-doom boom!

Ya, that joke is about as lame as a shortboard at the Larwrencetown reef in June…Ba-doom boom, Tsssh!

Thank you, thank you very much.

In all seriousness folks, with waves in short supply in Nova Scotia during the summer months, what’s a surfer to do?

Might as well party.

The One Life Surf School is hosting a “Summer Kick-Off Party” Friday night (June 5) at the Seahorse tavern in Downtown Halifax.

The party will feature performances by Smothered in Hugs, The Prospector’s Union, RoomDoom and DJ Nigel Lutes.

Prizes will also be given away. Cover is $10 per person; doors open at 9 p.m.
