South Cronulla looked like a lumber mill there was so much wood on show. Cronulla legends from near and far turned up for this very special tribute.There was so much surfing history going on I doubt very much that you will ever see anything quite like it again in the Shire.Big thumbs up to all those involved.to1                                                  Recreating History; (from left) Ernie Johnson, Barry Banister, George Opperman, Larry Perryman, Alan ‘‘Buck’’ Spencer, Ron Casaceli, Brian Keane, Rob Young, Keith Suann, John Salmon, Barry Regan, John Suann, Ken O’Donnell and Kevin Quealy.

The eternal grommet who lived for the beach,Lenny was a regular face along Cronulla beaches and Point always surfing on his Mal in a hat. At one point Len was the oldest active surfer in Australia and possibly the world. He sadly passed away in 13th April 2013. RIP.
