A year ago Sunday, I shared my first post on this blog. It was a post about Kelly Slater and his 11th ASP World Title win in San Francisco. It’s funny that that experience prompted me to write my first blog post but I really wanted to share what I was learning about surfing as I’ve tried to pick up the sport later in life. Since then, my blog has branched out into many different directions.
I thought that this week would be all about celebrating my first year of blogging. I have two fun giveaways planned. However, I’ve been feeling off-track lately with the impact of Hurricane Sandy still fresh and palpable in and around New York City. It seems a bit frivolous to go on with giveaways at a time like this.
But the more I thought about it, the more I thought the giveaway could be an opportunity to not only thank all of you who have supported me over the past year, but also to support the rebuilding and recovery efforts post-Sandy and a wonderful small business owner in NYC.
So that’s what I’m going to do.
My lovely ESD mantra necklace. I love it. I wear it all the time and it always brings me calm, peace and confidence.
THE GIVEAWAY
When I first thought about doing a giveaway, I kept coming back to one thing – Erica Sara’s gorgeous handmade jewelry. I have one of her mantra necklaces and I absolutely adore it. I have two charms on my necklace – my personal mantra (Paddle Paddle) and a charm for the NYC Triathlon – the race I’m most proud of finishing.
One lucky reader will win a custom mantra necklace (or its equivalent).
Erica is an incredibly kind person and I am happy to support her as a small business owner. She will be donating a portion of proceeds from ESD’s Marathon race bling to the Sandy Relief Efforts, retroactive to Monday, October 29th and through the holiday season. This includes ALL race jewelry.
GIVEAWAY ENTRIES

====================================
HURRICANE SANDY RESOURCES AND WAYS TO HELP
There are many ways that you can support Sandy relief efforts from near and far away. Here is a list of organizations that are providing direct relief and services to communities and residents affected by the Hurricane.
- Rockaway Recovery
- Red Hook Initiative
- Rockaway Youth Task Force
- Waves for Water
- City Harvest
- Tunnel to Towers
- Hurricane Sandy nonprofit resources page
There are other ways that you can assist:
- Donate blood. More than 300 blood drives were cancelled due to the storm and power outages. Find a blood donation location here.
- You can start your own online fundraising effort through Crowdrise and designate funds for a specific charity. For example, Lora has set up her own fundraising effort to benefit the Mayor’s Fund to Advance NYC.
- More than anything, many of the affected communities need able-bodies who can help volunteer, clean-up and/or climb stairs to bring supplies to seniors and others trapped in tall buildings without power or elevators. If you are in NYC and can volunteer, check out the Occupy Sandy website which is coordinating an effort to distribute resources and volunteers to the affected areas.




















This is wonderful! Erica is amazing with all of the efforts she’s putting in to help Sandy victims and you are just as awesome for donating for every entry.
I love you guys to pieces

Happy Bloversary! I am organizing a fundraiser for the victims of Hurricane Sandy at my high school. Students can pay $5 to wear jeans (instead of a uniform). All proceeds will go to Catholic Relief Services earmarked for those in need after the storm. We did this a few years ago with Hats for Haiti and it was a smashing success. You are an inspiration! Thanks.

162 comments…holy cow! Ok, I remember seeing you wear this necklace in B’more and recall thinking to myself, “I really need to find a necklace like Christine’s!” I loved it! Going about registering now.
As far as what we’re doing, we’re giving clothes to those in need in Staten Island. We’ve also been donating $$ to some of our friend’s who have lost their homes. We’ve also given to our neighbor from NJ whose town was also devastated in the storm. We’ll be heading to Staten Island soon to lend a hand where needed.
This is an incredible effort you’ve put together!

What a great idea! I am a huge fan of Erica Sara Designs jewelry and think it’s great she is part of your sandy relief efforts. I volunteered already last Sunday in Stateb Island with the Runners for Staten Island. we donated food, clothing and other essentials to people in need, as well as helped clean up debris from people’s lawns and houses. I am also co-hosting a fundraiser this Tuesday night with the other people that I met last weekend at wine bar in NYC and all proceeds will go to Hurricane Sandy Relief.
You are an amazing woman! You both are. I happily tweeted away.

I tweeted, but am too lame to know how to link to it.
I am collecting pjs and books for “operation bedtime”. Kids feel safe(r) when snuggled up in bed with a loved one reading a book. So we are collecting bedtime bundles and will be sending them to the Jersey Shore.
Great giveaway, and I love Erica’s stuff too! She’s so talented. I’ve helped in recovery efforts by donating multiple bags and boxes to relief centers, and to a friend who lost everything in the storm. I’m also doing NYC Running Mama’s Race for Recovery!
