Oceanside CA— Surf Instructor, Heather Pine generously volunteered her time to provide surf lessons to Boys & Girls Clubs of Oceanside’s (BGCO) summer campers. Pine visited the Club on June 27, 2016 to get campers excited about learning how to surf, and to give an overview on basic surf techniques and on June 30, 2016 BGCO campers and staff met her at the beach to put their lessons to the test.
Campers were ecstatic about the opportunity to have lessons from a professional surfer and were excited when they each stood up on the surf board. “It was amazing to see the kids light up as they rode the waves in!” exclaimed Maui, a BGCO Staff member. Maui continued to say “Heather was an incredible instructor; she engaged the kids, kept their attention, and successfully got each child to ride a wave.”
BGCO is grateful for individuals and local businesses like Surf Lessons with Heather Pine, who go the extra mile to invest in the lives of our youth. Because of these partnerships, BGCO is able to provide high quality programming and experiences to our members.
