Hukilau Surf Camp


Pastor Steve combined his passion for surfing and his passion for Jesus Christ several years ago and Hukilau Surf Camp was born.  Today we finished up our surf camp season for 2008.
August 16th's Camp in a nut shell:
  • 28 Surf Campers
  • We went international with one from Russia and one from England
  • Surf wasn't great today but campers learned how to withstand a pounding from the waves and boards, paddling and how to stand up on the board.
  • Mickey McCarthy shared with the campers about surf photography and took some shots out in the water
  • Nags Head lifeguard, Emily, shared about beach and water safety
  • Steve shared how waves are generated
  • I shared that God the creator of the surf desires a relationship with us and has a purpose for our lives
  • More than 30 volunteers from the church served as coaches and support staff
  • I forgot to rub sunblock on my noggin, Ouch!
  • The lad from England won a gift certificate to SOS, a local surf shop at milepost 16ish
  • Couple of other kids won fudge (not sure how that ties into surfing) from the Culinary Duck in Duck, NC
  • All campers got a sweet Hukilau shirt, goodie bag, Noah's Arc DVD.
What is your passion and how can you use that passion to spread the love of Jesus Christ?
