Today, the Santa Cruz Area Chamber was proud to be there as Chamber member Ocean Honda presented local hero Ryder Williams with a new Honda Ridgeline in recognition of his incredible bravery.

Ryder stepped in to save a child during an extreme wave event here on the Central Coast, demonstrating the kind of courage and selflessness that deserves to be celebrated.

We’re grateful to live in a community where our residents and local businesses continually go above and beyond for one another.

Congratulations, Ryder, and thank you to Ocean Honda for recognizing a true local hero.
