Ocean Awareness
|
| |

Practicing boogey boarding in the pool. |
Ocean Awareness is our way of bringing your children's swimming
skills from the pool to the ocean. Our ocean, here in Santa Cruz,
is fairly complicated resulting in a mecca for talented water sports
athletes. On the other hand, it can be dangerous to the uneducated.
Throughout Ocean Awareness, we will introduce many of the ocean
environments to children and their families. Each session is a
month long, meeting once a week on Sunday mornings. The first 3
Sundays we will be at our pool for a half hour of conditioning,
followed by a half hour of pool games, focusing on skills to be
used in the ocean. The last Sunday of the session, we will spend
the morning in the ocean playing with our new skill, finishing
with a beach barbecue. Every month we will emphasize a different
ocean sport and a new ocean habitat. Boogie boarding, surfing,
kayaking and skin diving are some of the skills to be covered.
Parents are welcome for this exciting family experience. |
