 Surf Warriors – September 30, 2011

This event was coordinated with the Wounded Warrior Project and held in conjunction with the Seven Tiki Pro in Jacksonville Beach.  Veterans were learned to surf at the southside of the Pier.  It was a great day with excellent weather and surf conditions.  It was a great way to give back to those that have given so much.

August 17, 2011 Cocoa Beach

Duval County wins the Gold! 

16 Athetes, 15 instructors/coaches/assistants, plus tons of family went to the second Special Olympics Surfing Games in Cocoa Beach hosted by Ron Jon Surf Shop.  The turnout was fantastic, there were fun waves, only a few jelly fish and lots of energy!  The surfing had progressed tremendously from last year and the competition was fierce.  Of the 6 divisions, Duval won gold in 3 and silver in 2, placing in the lead overall in the event in top position in level 3 for both men and women.  It was an amazing event, after 2 months of practice, preparation and the County Games the athletes went down to win and win they did!  Congratulations once again going to Donica Hayes the director for Special Olympics in Duval County.

Wounded Warriors Go Surfing

The Florida Surfing Association is organizing a surfing program for the Wounded Warriors Project whose national headquarters is in Jacksonville, Florida. On July 15, 2011 at Huguenot Memorial Park the FSA will be giving surf lessons to some of our veterans. Start time is 9:00 AM. There is a nominal fee to enter the park. Proceed out to the beach (one of the few places you can still drive out on the beach), once you are out of the beach go to the right (South) and you will see the tents. After a few hours of surfing we are going to have a cook out and award ceremony. If you would like to be involved please email us at info@floridasurfing.org

It is a great way to give back to those who have given so much.

This event is sponsored by Aqua East Surf Shop
