The City of Rosarito Beach, Baja California and FDt Marketing are proud to announce the Rosarito Beach Pro-Am which will be held on August 7th-9th, 2009 in Rosarito, at the Rosarito Pier. The event, which has been in development for nearly 7 months, will feature some of North America’s best shortboarders mixed with excellent up and coming amateur surfers from the U.S. and Mexico.
“Finally a surf event is back in Northern Baja. It’s awesome that the city of Rosarito is stepping in to provide both local and international surfers an opportunity to showcase their talent and win some coin”, said Zach Plopper, Professional Surfer.
FDt Marketing, the management company behind the Rosarito Beach Pro-Am, feels they are bringing this contest to Rosarito at the perfect time of year, seeing huge potential for this year and beyond.
“We feel bringing this surf contest to Rosarito is a perfect opportunity to not only help with the tourism in Rosarito, but to also give another opportunity to those surfers, professional and amateur, to compete in a location where they usually would not. Being in Mexico will not only draw a lot of great local pro U.S. surfers, but also give opportunity to those amateurs in the Mexican Surf Federation as well as those up and coming U.S. amateurs. We are excited to be a part of this event and look forward to a great contest.” Jeff Stoner, president FDt Marketing.
The event will be webcasted with live scoring on Saturday and Sunday, August 8th and 9th, and can be seen on www.rosarito.org/surf. For more information on the event, travel arrangements, or the City of Rosarito, please visit the Rosarito website www.rosarito.org or contact FDt Marketing.

Testimonials for Rosarito Beach, Baja California, Mexico
From the moment I moved here almost two years ago my experience has been wonderful. I feel safer in my little town of La Mision than I ever did in any US city or rural town.
The people here have been, almost without exception, kind, friendly, helpful, respectful, gentle and warm. My favorite part of life in Mexico is that nearly everyone will smile and wave if you smile and wave.
Their willingness to engage and their trust in other human beings is a balm to my tired soul. I love the landscape too, the sea, the rocks, and the unique buildings. It's as though each one was created and built spontaneously, and then painted in glorious colors just for me.

Rosarito Beach Pro WQS Event Still On Amid Government Agency Warnings, Security Heightened
MARCH 9TH, 2009- The City of Rosarito announced today that the Rosarito Beach Pro WQS event scheduled for April 3rd-5th is still on and full steam ahead. With the support from city officials, such as the Rosarito police and Rosarito’s own, Mayor Hugo Torres, event organizers feel very confident the event can over with no major incidents, as security surrounding Rosarito has been heightened to insure everyone’s safety.
“We are very happy that FDt Marketing and the ASP have decided to host the event here in beautiful Rosarito Beach at the Rosarito Beach Hotel Pier. The surf contest is a very important event for Rosarito, as this city has been a favorite destination for surfers through the years. The contest has plenty of potential to be a successful event, and I am more than happy to make sure we host the Surf Contest every year from now on” said Hugo Torres, Mayor of Rosarito Beach.
Mayor Torres, has taken many steps to ensure the safety of residents and tourists of Rosarito by enlisting the help of federal and state police to help patrol the streets. Over 50 state police officers are now helping the 150 local police officers patrol the city streets and outlying areas of Rosarito. The additional security has been added around the city, after reports earlier this week that the federal bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms gave warnings to spring breakers not to head into Tijuana and Rosarito Beach areas for spring break due to the dangers surrounding Northern Mexico and Baja California.
“We welcome all Spring Breakers as usual, Rosarito is safer than ever as we have launched the Tourist Police Force, a group of attentive bilingual officers, trained especially to deal with tourists issues; we also have the Tourist Attention Department, available 24/7 and a fully bilingual Ombudsman for mayor incidents. We have no problems here and no tourist has been affected by organized crime in the last 20 years”, stated Mayor Torres, when asked about his thoughts surrounding security for Spring Breakers, Surfers, and spectators heading into Rosarito over the next few weeks.
Rosarito officials amid all the recent bad press, feel that the Rosarito Beach Pro surf contest, and the few weeks of spring break will still see a large turnout. Rosarito has also launched a campaign to help educate people and let them know that violence in Rosarito Beach has not been an issue, nor have tourists been targets in the Rosarito area for organized crime.
