Morro Bay Sea Otter Tour

On September 27th, 2019 the GO See Foundation coordinated a guided Sea Otter Expedition on the Embarcadero in Morro Bay in honor of Sea Otter Awareness Week. 5 visually impaired individuals were able to participate thanks to the help from several volunteer sighted guides and folks providing transportation. After the tour, the GO See Foundation sponsored lunch at Tognazzini’s.

A special thanks to Norma Wightman and California State Parks for providing an educational “hands on” event.

Morro Bay Tandem Kayak Event

The GO See Foundation sponsored an adventurous guided tandem kayak tour in Morro Bay lead by Tom from Central Coast Kayaks. 11 people in all (including several volunteer sighted guides) had a fantastic day out on the bay with lunch afterwards. 

A special thanks to Thrivent for their $250 grant to support the event plus t-shirt donation for all participants.

Pottery Coast Experience

Susan Bass, owner of the Pottery Coast in Grover Beach, sponsored a wonderful experience for several visually impaired people to create a pottery piece in her studio. Thank you to Susan and the volunteers.

Visually Impaired Riders Complete 30-Mile Classique

GO See Team Rides CC Classique 30-Mile Ride

Visually Impaired Ride Tandem

Two visually impaired riders and their captains were sponsored by the foundation and completed the 30-mile ride at this year’s annual Central Coast Classique as part of Team GO See.

GO See Foundation founder, Allyson Buerger was the “Stoker” with her “Captain,” Deana Steen while Susan Nazionale stoked for her Captain, Kevin Coburn. All four riders enjoyed the ride from Arroyo Grande to Avila Beach and back.

The morning began cool and foggy in Arroyo Grande at the starting line:

The 15 Mile Marker was in Avila Beach

At the Finish Line, the riders still had plenty of energy to joke around and celebrate a great day of getting out and being engaged in their world:
