FREEDOM IS NOT FREE (FINF) is partnering with Surf Diva, INT Softboards and the La Jolla Shores Hotel to sponsor an annual surf program called the Little Warriors Surf Camp in order to provide children of wounded and fallen service members with an escape from the daily reminders of why they’re different from other children. The camp gives these special children a fun and physically challenging outlet that they might not otherwise have been afforded.
Additionally, at the conclusion of the camp, each child will receive his or her own surfboard so that they can continue to live the surfing lifestyle – one that encompasses sport, spirituality, physical fitness and emotional well-being. The camp will take place at Kellogg Park in La Jolla Shores, CA, from August 10-14, 2009. One child and his or her parents will receive an all-expenses paid trip to San Diego to attend two days of camp, a visit to Sea World or the world famous San Diego Zoo, and dinner at La Jolla’s finest restaurants, including world-famous George’s at the Cove, courtesy of FINF and the La Jolla Shores Hotel. The La Jolla Shores Hotel is graciously donating four nights in an oceanfront room to the winner of the essay, “What Freedom Means to Me.” Details for this contest are posted to the FINF web site.
Additional sponsors, Wahoo’s Fish Tacos, Sector9 Skateboards, Bessell Surf, Sticky Bumps Wax and Mitch’s Surf Shop will also participate…Â Details
