Dan Haifley’s Retirement Celebration

On Thursday, April 11th, our Monterey Bay community celebrated Dan Haifley’s career in ocean protection and his retirement from O’Neill Sea Odyssey, and welcomed O’Neill Sea Odyssey’s new Executive Director, Rachel Kippen.

We are grateful to our generous sponsors who made this free, public event possible: Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Carol Fuller, Stephanie Harlan, Joe Simitian, Celeste Basuino, NOAA’s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, Mark Stone, and Monterey Bay Community Power. We are also grateful for our party planning committee, Santa Cruz Waves, Santa Cruz Sand, and music by the Wave Tones. Thank you for joining us in this celebration!
