Summer Camp!

It’s almost July and the North Carolina coast is already seeing temps in the mid-90’s!  There’s no better time to hit the beach and spend time in the water.  Our summer camps are ideal when school’s out and the weather starts heating up.

Surf Camp hosts summer camps for kids ages 6 – 10 (Guppy Camp) and surf camps for ages 11 and up.  We have day camps and overnight camps, weekend clinics, adventure travel camps, and surfing vacations as well as private and group surf lessons.

All of our summer camp and surf camp instructors are certified and highly trained.  Each of our Surf Camp overnight camp instructors are also certified in CPR for the Professional Rescuer, Lifeguarding, and First Aid.  Collectively, we have tons of experience both in the water and as camp counselors for kids ages 6 and up.  Our Surf Camp Team is hand picked from hundreds of applicants and has a reputation and responsibility of providing a safe and highly trusted summer and surf camp program.

In addition to the focus on top-notch surf instruction with low student to instructor ratios (never more than 3:1), Surf Camp also has a mission of environmental conservation that is shared by every instructor and staff member.  Kids will not only learn respect and understanding of the ocean, wave dynamics, and surfing, they will also learn to appreciate the importance of protecting our environment and the impact our actions have on the world around us.

Surf Camp is the perfect summer camp for kids who love the outdoors, love the beach and the water.  Learning to surf is a skill and a passion that stays with you throughout a lifetime.  We LOVE our job of introducing the world of surfing to kids and adults alike.  Join us at Surf Camp this summer for an experience you’ll never forget!

With summer approaching and kids getting ready to be out of school it is vital to speak with your children about being aware of their surroundings. Teaching them to not speak with strangers and to instead turn to trusted adults is always a good precaution. As safety is our number one priority we just wanted to increase awareness of a local in post from the Pender County Sheriff’s Office and WECT News 6…

“PENDER COUNTY, NC (WECT) – The Pender County Sheriff’s Office is trying to identify a man who has approached a number of children asking if they have seen his lost puppy.

Two young girls reported they were approached by a middle aged man while they were playing in their neighborhood near North Topsail Elementary Saturday afternoon. They said the man asked them if they had seen his “lost dog.”

According to the sheriff’s office, the two girls ran home to tell their parents about the situation. An older brother of one of the girls stayed behind in effort to get a tag number on the vehicle the man was driving, but lost sight of it before seeing the plate number.

Deputies say the man has been seen by several individuals ranging in age from 9 to 17. He is described as a white male in his mid 40s with a mustache and stained teeth. Witnesses told authorities the man was driving an older model, dark green, sports utility type vehicle.

The sheriff’s office said they have been hearing rumors of similar incidents taking place in both Pender and New Hanover Counties over the past two weeks, but have been unable to trace the source of the additional accounts.

Pender County Detective Scott Lawson says parents need to take the time to talk to their children about being aware of their surroundings and quickly alerting a trusted adult if something happens that makes them uncomfortable.

Anyone who recognizes the man depicted to the right is asked to contact Detective Lawson at (910) 259-1438.”
