2020 Annual Birthday Walk
When: Sunday February 9th 2020, 9am
Where: Torrey Pines State Reserve 12600 N Torrey Pines Rd., La Jolla CA 92037
Meet at picnic tables/group hike area for a group picture, donuts, waters, and pick up your hats. We usually start hiking by 9:30am.
Every year in honor of Kenny’s Birthday we hike one of his favorite spots. This year we are selling Kenny inspired hats to wear on the hike. If you knew Kenny well, you’d know he always left you by saying ‘Have fun, don’t be good’ – which was his way of saying Go out and live… explore, get dirty, find adventure, and let lose a little!
Scholarships
Partnering with schools to provide scholarships to students who demonstrate “Kenny-UP” behavior. We believe in recognizing our youth that work hard to overcome various challenges, have a innate ability to spread smiles, kindness, respect, honesty, and gratefulness! We are carrying out Kenny’s wish to pay it forward and honor students that do the same for our communities.

Kenny’s Travels
The following pictures are from Kenny’s numerous travels, including Vietnam, China, Costa Rica, BOSS survival school, New Zealand, and many back-backing trips with good friends and family. Kenny has an appreciation for other cultures that goes beyond just wanting to see the world. He truly becomes part of the culture and lifestyle where ever he goes. And there is no doubt that he touched hundreds of people along the way…
