Oceanside Surf Camp For Youth October 5th & 6th

Waves of Impact is sponsoring a free surf camp for children with special challenges on the beach in Oceanside, October 5th and 6th.  The camps will run from 10:00am-2:00pm each day. All equipment is provided. However, if your child has a wetsuit or life jacket, please bring it.

Space is limited. Each special surfer will need a ticket (free). Please only select one day so more children have an opportunity to participate. We will try to accommodate siblings at this camp the best we can, but with limited space we will have to assess the situation on the beach at the event.

Each surfer will be assigned a 30-minute surf time and will receive more detailed information the week of the event.

If two children in the family are special surfers, please sign up for two tickets.  

Must be a parent or guardian to register. Also parent or legal guardian must be at the surf camp with their child.

We're really looking forward to seeing you!

Volunteer Opportunities

We're looking for selfless and compassionate volunteers to share this amazing experience with our participants.  Water awareness and knowing how to surf is a plus, but absolutely not needed to be a part of this program.  We ask that volunteers are 15 and older, unless accompanied by an adult.

• Water Volunteers: Anyone may sign up to be in the water as a lead surfer, board      catcher, pusher, or on the safety team. Volunteers in this category must      be diligent and aware of all surfers and their surroundings in the water,      as safety is our biggest priority. Our surf teams consist of 1 lead surfer      and 2-3 assistants to help push and catch the board and its rider. First      time and novice volunteers will be placed on a team with experienced      surfers. Volunteers who wish to participate on the safety team will be      responsible for watching the surfers, and making sure their path remains      clear of anyone in the water.  You may be needed to assist in      catching a board from time to time in shallow water.
• Beach Volunteers: This is the perfect area for anyone who wishes to remain dry and      interact with the families on the beach. Roles include registration and      check-in, t-shirt distribution and sales, rash guard fitting and      retrieval, medal distribution, lunch and snack preparations, and spending      time with our youth on the beach as they await their surf time.
• Photographers: If you have a      professional camera and love capturing ear to ear smiles, then this is the      place for you! While living in the moment is precious, having lasting      memories on film are priceless. We want our families, friends,      participants and volunteers to have an opportunity to relive these once in      a lifetime events over and over again.
