How did you first hear about AccesSurf?
Michael has been a part of the AccesSurf ‘Ohana since 2009 and is still always excited to come surf every month.
What does AccesSurf mean to you?
AccesSurf has been an incredible support for Michael and his mom, Julie. Michael’s love of the water is a legacy from his father who used to be a lifeguard and was recruited for the Olympic swim team. Even as a toddler, Michael rarely got out of the water, to have AccesSurf help Michael experiece the ocean is a real gift.
What is your favorite AccesSurf memory?
Every single time Michael goes belly-surfing with his AccesSurf surf instructors and comes out with a smile is a favorite memory.
