In partnership with the highly respected nonprofit, Indo Jax Surf Charities, Riding On Insulin is beyond stoked to announce our first-ever surf camp in Summer 2019. The three-day surf camp for ages 7-17 will take place at Morro Strand Beach in Cayucos, California on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, July 30-August 1. There will be surf sessions all three days from 9 AM - 12 PM. Register and get more details here. The cost for the 3-day camp is $250. You can fundraise your camp fee here. All equipment, including surfboards, wetsuits and life vests are provided for this event. Indo Jax is the absolute best at what they do, teaching disadvantaged, medically fragile, special needs and, very soon, T1D kids and teens, how to surf. This is Indo Jax's first time teaching T1D kids how to surf, which is where ROI comes in. We will have Sean Busby, Dustin, as well as a few coaches there to join in on the fun and provide the very important T1D mentorship role. The camp takes place at Morro Strand State Beach near Cayucos, California. It's smack dab in the middle of Southern California and Northern California, meaning no more than a four-hour drive for families. There is a nice campground right on site and plenty of lodging options nearby. Please see the "Make it a vacation" page for more lodging details. Indo Jax believes that the ocean, and learning to surf, has profound healing properties and can build self-esteem. They have seen that children who take part in their surf camps inevitably move from a feeling of skepticism and reluctance around the ocean to empowerment and confidence, giving them the sense that “If I can surf, I can do anything!” There is also a campground right on site. Cayucos is a four-hour drive from the Los Angeles area and about 4.5 hours from the San Francisco area. Please email [email protected] with any questions.
