The 11 th annual Key West Classic Paddleboard Race was recently held, where contestants compete to paddle around Key West (a 12 mile course) in the fastest time. Michael Westenberger entered the race and decided to pledge any winnings to 3 local Key’s charities, The Turtle Hospital, Key West Wildlife Rescue and Green Living and Energy Education.

“Westy” placed second in the race and provided a third of his $2000 winnings to help save Sea Turtles in the Florida Keys!
