OPERATION SURF...

Activities, adventures, and memories are created in the City of Santa Cruz by veterans, volunteers, and community members. On April 13, veterans arrive for 3 days of surfing and other activities.

There will be a welcoming ceremony on April 13 at 11 am.  Activities will be scheduled from April 13 through April 15 in the City of Santa Cruz.

It started with a mission

Operation Surf came into existence as a result of one wounded heroes desire to learn to surf. Navy Corpsman Derek McGuiness was being treated at the Brooke Army Medical Center when he met Janis Roznowski of Operation Comfort, another organization dedicated to helping our wounded soldiers heal. Corpsman McGuiness had lost his leg in the war.
