Winter Warrior Retreat
Jan 12th – Jan. 17th
AmpSurf will take 8 warrior heroes for a weekend of winter rehabilitation in the beautiful Sequoia National Forest. The majestic Sequoia National forest is one of the most amazing places on the planet. Trees here have been growing for over 2000 years and provide a perfect place for our warriors to reflect and rehabilitate. The trip will consist of Four days in camp and two travel days. In Camp time will be filled with short hikes, creek fishing, the ‘Tour of Giants’ and relaxation. For a breakdown of activities for the event please look below.
“This is an exciting for us as we continue to expand and fulfill our mission of reaching out to help our fellow veterans and disabled feel the healing power of the ocean and other outdoor activities. Taking this group to the mountains for this retreat will be very rewarding for us and our participants! I feel honored and humbled to be a part of this!” said Dana Cummings, AmpSurf Director and San Luis Obispo County Veterans Service Officer.
