Surf Clinic For People with Visual Impairments

August 14 @ 4:00 pm - 8:30 pm
A navy and yellow flyer promotes a Learn to Surf Clinic for people with visual impairments, presented by AmpSurf in partnership with Foreseeable Future and New England. The main photo shows a man in a yellow shirt and patterned shorts riding a surfboard on a wave, arms outstretched for balance, while a woman in a red rash guard and purple visor swims alongside in the water behind him, with a rocky coastline visible in the hazy background. In the upper right, a black silhouette graphic shows pine trees, palm trees, a surfboard standing upright, and a line of figures including a wheelchair user, set against a large orange sun, with the AmpSurf and Foreseeable Future logos in the upper left and center. Bold text announces the event details: Second Beach, Middletown, Rhode Island, August 14th, 4:00 P.M. to 8:30 P.M. Along the bottom, a navy banner has three icons with text: an accessibility icon reading all people with visual impairments are invited to register, a people icon reading volunteers are needed for a great evening at the beach, and a hand icon reading celebrating adaptive surfing with those who are visually impaired. A yellow box in the bottom right reads Register Today with an arrow pointing to a QR code branded with the AmpSurf logo.

Note: This event is run by AmpSurf, not CPNRI.

All people living with a visual impairment are welcome to register for one of the limited spots to join us and experience the healing power of surfing.
