The next generation of ocean activists is right here in the Rockaways. When kids try surfing the right way, it builds a lifelong passion for the environment.
Our activities are designed to increase their awareness of plastic pollution, clean water quality and ocean-friendly gardens. Led by two surf instructors from the Rockaways, Mike Reinhardt and Mike Kololyan, and Surfrider NYC Youth Coordinator, Moe Magali.
How does it work?
- Show up for free surfing lessons in partnership with Locals Surf School
- Every Friday afternoon June 22nd to August 17th
- Open to all Rockaway youth
