A fundraiser for the new Skatepark and Pump track in Freshwater is being held later this month.
Movie and Music night in aid of Freshwater Skatepark and pump track takes place on the 22nd March 2024, starting at 6:30pm at Memorial Hall, Freshwater.
Come and see the movie Savage Waters currently in cinemas and skate movies from Wight Trash.
Live music
After the movie we have live music from our own local skater Martha Eggleton and then Hashtag (a three-piece band from the Isle of Wight specialising in funk, rock and indie music) until midnight.
The bar will be open to the side of the hall.
We will also be having a raffle with some amazing prizes already lined up from Canopy, Wight Trash, Surf Ears, Teemill, Mermaid Gin, Sugar and Spice Lingerie and Earth, Wind and Water.
Savage Waters
Savage Waters is a tantalising passage in a 19th-century treasure hunter’s journal inspires a family of modern-day adventurers to find and surf a spectacular wave in some of the most remote and dangerous waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
For renowned skipper and thrill-seeker Matt Knight, the challenge of sailing to such an unpredictable and uncharted region is impossible to resist. Joined by world-class big wave surfer Andrew Cotton, plus family and friends, the group faces serious injury and life-threatening challenges as they fulfil their quest.
An intimate and epic portrayal of extraordinary individuals
Narrated by Charles Dance, Mikey Corker’s exhilarating documentary is an intimate and epic portrayal of extraordinary individuals who push the very limits of exploration.
It is filmed in some of the most beautiful islands and dangerous waters in the Atlantic, from the West Coast of Ireland to the mighty waters of Nazare.
The film is an ode to pushing the limits of your world, connecting with the people around you, overcoming adversities with optimism and testing your grit. Our modern adventurers, just like the 19th-century adventurers they are emulating, will inspire and remind you of what is truly important – especially today.
Online Auction
There is also an Online Auction, where you can bid on Family tickets for Camp Bestival, One-of-a-kind piece from LTJ Jewellery, Sinner Saint Green Camo Jacket by Bird & Wolf, Eddie’s Surf Academy Voucher or a Slow Motion Sauna Experience for six.
