- Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) April 22, 2015 - If you are looking for things to do in Santa Cruz this weekend, come join us on April 25th & 26th, at Capitola Beach, to help us support our nations injured veterans. Operation Surf 2015 is held in honor of the veterans who have made sacrifices for the freedom of our country. Wounded veterans of various branches of our US military, who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, will take part in an inspiring experience on the waves at Capitola Beach.
This is the second year we have participated in Operation Surf. For these heroes, the trip to Capitola and the Operation Surf event is their first time leaving the hospital after their injury. At last year's Operation Surf event, Veteran participants were overwhelmed at the outpouring of love and appreciation by the Capitola community and its many volunteers.
Getting out surfing and stand up paddle boarding provides a unique opportunity to get back to nature and feel the healing power of the ocean. These heroes will overcome life challenges and build new understanding of their potential and Capitola Beach Company is excited to be participating again.
There are a variety of ways to get involved in this event: Water Survey, Set-up or Break-Down, Motivator, Translator, or Surf Instructor. You can also just come down to enjoy Capitola Beach and help cheer our veterans on.
We hope to see you out in the water (or at Capitola Beach) this weekend helping us show our veterans what Santa Cruz surfing is all about!
