For five consecutive summers, Square Peg has teamed up with the HMB Surf Club and the Junior Lifeguards, to present a fun, safe, and adventurous day at the beach that the whole family is invited to participate in! Surf days mean surfing, boogie-boarding, playing in the sand, sports on the beach (soccer, football, etc) and just enjoying sunshine and friends. Our program prides itself on being private, inclusive, and community-oriented.
Our main focus is for the kids to have fun- whether that means getting in the water or not. We have found that like with riding, no pressure is key. Whether or not they get in the water is not the point- as long as they have fun and enjoy the day!
