What happens in the Boo stays in the Boo. Two best friends, Shane and Grant, lead a beginner surf camp at the sexiest beach of the planets: Neptune’s Net. Enjoy a beautiful PCH drive out to Malibu, some mellow waves, and tasty dinner provided by Master Chef Shane themself. Sous Chef, Grant, will also be a great source of encouragement as he will also be learning how to surf. Vibes will be good, bellies will be filled with some tasty food. In all seriousness, here is game plan:

• Leave by 1:30 pm Friday (9/9). Be sure to eat a decent lunch before!

  • Meet at Shack will be easiest!

• Open to ALL skill levels. Beginners will receive gear and help if needed.

• Latest arrival back to campus would be 9 pm.

• Menu is being crafted by our Master Chef and looking for recommendations from participants.

  • Form will be sent out for dietary restrictions, preferences, etc.
