|PIC1|Popular rock band Switchfoot will be hosting the 3rd annual 'Switchfoot Bro-Am', a charity surfing contest and concert.
The event will be held 2 June at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, California. Proceeds from concessions, sponsors, after-party, and a silent auction on 30 May will benefit Care House, a San Diego-based non-profit organisation that assists needy children and at-risk teens throughout the county.
"The [event] combines three of our favourite things: music, surfing, and San Diego," said Switchfoot's Chad Butler. "For the last two years the local community has united to make a difference in the lives of kids who are in situations they should never have to face."
