The Dana Point Historical Society will honor Don Hansen at this years Founders Day Program. The meeting will be Wednesday, May 23 at the Dana Hills Tennis Center, 24911 Calle De Tenis, Dana Point, CA 92629.

Don Hansen, founder of Dana Wharf Sportfishing and Whale Watching, has spent his lifetime being dedicated to two things — recreational fishing and protecting marine resources in Southern California. Hansen is not only the founder of Dana Wharf Sportfishing and Whale Watching but he is also someone who helped pioneer whale watching in California. In the process, he helped to establish Dana Point as one of the most popular places to whale watch. Dana Wharf has been running daily sportfishing trips since the Dana Point Harbor opened in 1971.

We hope you will be able to join the society in honoring this remarkable and dedicated individual.
