More problems with the Venice Boardwalk safety barricades as one of the poles will not lower down to allow the emergency vehicle to pass through as they are supposed to. And they were having trouble trying to unlock the second barricade, so they have to go down the neaby alley and walk a block to reach the person needing emergency medical aid.

4 rehabilitated sea lion pups, named Peachick, Spiderling, Sprinkles, and Brownie, who were affected by the recent algal bloom were released back to the ocean by the Marine Mammal Care Center this morming during a huige press conference at the Venice Pier.

Officials say sea lions have been affect by Red Tides and Domoic Acid Toxicity.

The Marine Mammal Center states "Domoic acid is produced during certain harmful algal bloom events by a type of algae called Pseudo-nitzschia australis. This neurotoxin accumulates in small fish, like sardines and anchovies, which are then eaten by marine mammals like sea lions in large quantities.

Domoic acid attacks the brain and the heart causing seizures and heart failure. If left untreated, it usually causes permanent brain damage. The toxin will naturally flush from an animal’s system over time, but sea lions repeatedly exposed to the toxin will suffer longer-lasting and more serious effects."

The Mission: Skaters take back the culture Super Patch Revolution is a movement created by skaters, for skaters, to reclaim skateboarding for the culture and community.

This competition has been organized entirely by skaters, with support from Venice locals and NYC underground crews. It includes contributions from:

* Skate Supporters

* Local and nonprofits

* Community art walls, youth demos, and wellness tents

Super Patch has also made a direct financial contribution to LA Parks & Recreation to improve local skate infrastructure and support youth programs beyond the event.

Featured Community Supporters

Backing the movement on the ground are local brands, artists, and organizations that live and breathe skate culture and community:

• 2 Live and Die in LA – Skater-rooted apparel & lifestyle brand • Aim High Sober Living (Nonprofit) – Supporting recovery through community • OG Family – Authentic LA culture and streetwear • Raised By Latinos – Uplifting the culture through fashion and empowerment • Still Alive Project – Creative mental health awareness collective • 360 Picksi Rentals – Event support and mobile rentals • Sincerely Yours – Richy Valley – Original art and storytelling for the streets.

Event location & dates
