Wrapping up 2022 ✨

December 22, 2022

Dear neighbors,As the year comes to a close, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on all of the incredible accomplishments we have achieved together as a neighborhood. From the seemingly small acts of kindness to grand gestures of generosity, it takes a million moments of selflessness to build a strong and supportive community like ours.First and foremost, I want to thank our dedicated board of directors for their unwavering commitment and hard work in support of the Ocean Beach community. As an all-volunteer powered organization, our elected board of directors are the driving force behind everything we do. Their tireless efforts and expert leadership are central to making meaningful impact in OB. I am deeply grateful for their dedication. OB is fortunate to have such a talented and dedicated group of individuals leading the way.I also want to thank the hundreds of volunteers who have generously donated their time and energy to make our events and initiatives a success. Your individual choices to sacrifice your time, talent, and treasure make everything we do possible. Without each and every one of you choosing to show up for OB, in ways big and small, we could not have achieved all that we have. Your dedication and commitment to Ocean Beach is unmatched. Thank you.Finally – a huge heartfelt thank you to our sponsors, who have generously supported the OBTC and our efforts to enrich the lives of OBceans. It is only with your financial generosity that we can continue stewarding important community traditions, and bringing new and exciting ideas to life. Without your generosity, events like the holiday parade, food & toy drive and others would not have been possible. We are fortunate to have such supportive partners in our community.As we look towards next year, we are committed to continuing our work together to make Ocean Beach an even better place to live, work, and play. Let’s enjoy the beautiful sunshine in the final days of 2022 and cheers to another fantastic year in OB. Sincerely,

Corey BruinsOBTC President
