The first year celebration of Hermosa Beach Historical Society was 4/11/08.
Richard Koenig is the president. He should be for every reason imaginable including the heritage of his mother Maggie Koenig, (Hermosas oldest and youngest thinking resident.) Her husband built many of the historic structures in our City. Body Glove, Becker, Spyder and all the big surf name companies were on hand to celebrate.
Photographer and author Chris Miller was there, daughter of Warren Miller. And the wave of surfers from all generations were on hand to kick off the celebration and see the film shown in the Hermosa Civic Center.
My husband Bob Pope graduated from Mira Costa High school and surfed with the great ones. There we rubbed elbows with surfers of all ages, levels and had a great time.
The film is amazing and one everyone of us will buy when it is available. Its bound to be a new classic.
