VIDEO: 2013 Keiki Paddle

The 6th Keiki Paddle brought a record number of ocean paddlers to East Beach this year in an annual event that raises money for local children facing life-threatening illnesses.

The group of over 100 paddlers started at Goleta Beach and made the nearly 10-mile trip to the landing at East Beach in Santa Barbara. Each was raising money to support beneficiaries Sam Helfand and the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation.

This video includes interviews with many individuals on the organizing Junior Advisory Board and highlights from the beach landing on Saturday, July 20.
