Event Description

Move over surfer dudes, the Young Professionals are taking over the beach and the waves! This event is for those who already know the ways of the ocean and those who are just starting out. We will be dividing up into two groups, basically the newbies vs the experienced surfers. In the end all will walk (or surf) away with new salt air loving friends.

EXPERIENCED SURFERS
Yes, we do mean those who do NOT need any sort of lesson. From 10:15 to 10:30 you will gather in front of Aloha Grove. Kevin and Peter (your hosts) will then lead everyone into the surf. If you do not arrive on time you will have a hard time finding the group so please be prompt. Aloha Grove rents out boards if you need one. If there is no surf this part of the event will be canceled (lessons below will not be canceled due to bad surf).

NEWBIES
From 10:15 to 10:30 you will gather in front of Aloha Grove. A group lesson is $35 per person for a 1 hour lesson and $70 for a 2 hour lesson. The price includes everything you need; all you need to do is show up in a bathing suit. To participate in this event YOU MUST CALL Aloha Grove and tell them you are with the NJYP Group (10:30am lesson). Let them know if you want 1 or 2 hours. If you wait to sign up it may SELL OUT. So call when you know you can commit. 732.263.0100

Comment by Justin on August 21, 2010 at 10:53am: Had to get four stitches on my hand last night... First thing doc says: "Do not expose this to salt water."

Grrrreat. No surfing for me today!

Comment by Brian and Mike on August 20, 2010 at 8:36pm: Meet at 10:15 tomorrow in front of the store. They are having a sidewalk sale but still meet outside.

At 10:30 the group will divide up into those taking a lesson and those going right to surfing.

Comment by Alane on August 19, 2010 at 12:24pm: Thanks Devin for the feedback! @

Comment by Carmela on August 18, 2010 at 3:17pm: i just joined NJYP and this will be my first event with everyone. I am looking forward to Saturday. See you all there :-)

Comment by Carmela on August 17, 2010 at 11:03pm: I am interested in attending. I was away this week on vacation and was thinking about learning how to surf and then i came across this event. I am looking forward to learning something new

Comment by Alane on August 17, 2010 at 11:17am: I am interested in attending, but one question I have is that I wear contact lenses. Do surfers wear swimming goggles over them while surfing, or is that not recommended??? Thanks for the info:D

Comment by Marisa Nogueira on August 12, 2010 at 11:17am: woohoo just booked my lesson. I'm a little nervous about all the shark sitings lately but I really wanna go, so I'm getting over it.

Comment by Holly on July 23, 2010 at 11:47am: Exactly what Laura said... Soo excited - I always wanted to try surfing, but didn't even know a place in NJ gave lessons!!! Can't wait.
