The 17th annual Chip Miller Surf Fest, raising awareness and funds for Amyloidosis research, was held Friday, July 30th in Ocean City. This year was the most successful yet! Over 200 surfers and their families flocked to the 7th Street surfing beach to participate.
The event is organized by Lance Miller, of Ocean City, in honor of his father, Chip Miller, who was diagnosed with Amyloidosis in 2003 and passed away a few months later in 2004. Lance formed the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation in honor of his father. The foundation raises both money for research and awareness about Amyloidosis.
Although last year’s event had to be canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, this year, conditions were ideal with great waves and plenty of sunshine.
The fundraising and the fun continued into the night with the 6th Annual Slide for Amyloidosis and Taste of OC at the Ocean City Water Park, with over 500 people in attendance.
