Kaua‘i Ocean Recreation
Kurt Leong, Kaua‘i County firefighter, is spearheading his own version of Access Surf Hawai‘i. Kaua‘i Ocean Recreation is specifically designed to get the physically challenged, or special needs children and adults into the ocean.
The program is set up to give them the assistance of having hands-on trained professionals present.
Whether it be surfing or just relaxing in the ocean, the intent is to get these special residents and their families to enjoy a day at the beach together.
Come experience the fun and freedom of learning how to surf in a safe and secure environment.
The first day will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Aug. 15 at Hanalei Black Pot beach.
To be a participant, or if you are interested in becoming a volunteer, call Kurt at 651-6416.
Please RSVP for this event due to limited space.
