Paddle with a Purpose
Michael Brunnemer, 24 years old, along side his mom Viviana, started renting paddleboards and kayaks through MyAloha a few years ago at Riverside Marina. Rob Bennett, owner of MyAloha Paddle and Surf at Lake Norman, generously offered Michael an opportunity to go into business for himself and sold him the equipment. He has offered not just his expertise in the rental industry, but also his unconditional love and support throughout the entire process. Rob continues to send Michael business and mentors him every step of the way.
Ralph and Anne Dickson, owners of Riverside Marina and Complex have given Michael a career as the Dock Master and as grounds keeper/assistant property manager at the Business Complex. Their generosity and support for Michael has been overwhelming.
His huge family and friend base give Michael the encouragement he needs to be successful. "I could never have done this on my own without the support of everyone who loves me, including God of course!", says Michael.
Because Michael recognizes how blessed he is with mentors such as Rob, the Dickson's and his friends and family, he has learned the power of giving back so he offers half his salary with huge discounted rates to non-profit community programs and helps plan fund raisers for them to reek the profits.
Please allow Michael to provide you, your friends, family, church and business associates a wonderful outing on the water, which in-turn allows him to lend more support to our community. Come paddle with a purpose!!
