The Beach Lady is a feature length documentary that follows the journey of a woman of great strength who never stopped. She was and continues to be inspirational. With her seven-foot long dreadlocks she walked into many classrooms and auditoriums catching the attention of everyone. She used this attention to spread her story of hope, compassion, and encouragement. Her soft voice and tender touch was hypnotic. It gave at-risk youth a feeling that they could make a difference. It made the old and infirm realize that they had purpose. MaVynee Betsch changed people wherever she roamed and whenever she spoke.

MaVynee Oshun Betsch passed away on September 5, 2005 on a very special place known as American Beach. Although MaVynee may be best remembered for her tireless work and significant success in preserving this special place. She was and continues to be so much more.
