Aquiles explained the purpose behind their efforts “We are here to put into practice the precept ‘Safeguard and Improve Your Environment’ from The Way to Happiness booklet a non -religious moral code by author and humanitarian L. Ron Hubbard. That same precept also encourages one to lend support to environmental issues which we are doing here with Heal the Bay today.”Aymerich thoroughly enjoyed the experience. “Heal the Bay is addressing the important environmental issue of pollution in the Bay. I think their purpose is helping to heal the planet! As we were cleaning the beach we saw lots of other Latinos here and they admired our efforts and some of them even helped with our trash collection. I am very proud to be setting an example for them as a Latino for keeping our beaches clean.”The clean up volunteers were all treated to free surfing lessons by members of the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre International Surf Club, a well-known group of Scientology surfers headed up by former pro surfer Rob Hoover, who has organized beach clean ups for Scientology organizations all over the world. Aymerich was “stoked” (surfer slang for really excited) at having received his first ever surfing experience and is looking forward to more beach clean ups and surfing this summer.Church of Scientology members around the world are known for their interest in environmental issues and support of organizations such as Heal the Bay.
