SURF CAMP FAQs
WHAT IS THE AGE REQUIREMENT TO ATTEND?
Our camps are geared towards 2nd-6th grade. Some kids are ready to do the camp at age 7, others might be 9 or 10 when they are ready for it. We trust, that you as a parent know your child and his/her readiness.
DOES MY KID NEED TO KNOW HOW TO SWIM?
Yes! We do have a lifeguard on the beach during the mornings, but it is important to know how to swim in order to get the safest and best possible experience out of the Surf Camp.
DO YOU OFFER SCHOLARSHIPS?
Yes, we do have a limited scholarships fund available. Please send a message to info@victorysessions.com to inquire more info.
DO YOU OFFER SIBLING DISCOUNTS?
We offer a little discount for families, who are signing up three or more kids for the surf camp. Please send a message to info@victorysessions.com and inquire about it.
DO WE NEED A SURF BOARD?
We provide surf boards for all the campers. You are also welcome to bring your own, just make sure it is marked.
ARE WETSUITS PROVIDED?
We have some wetsuits available to use but can’t guarantee them for all the campers. We strongly encourage everyone to have their own wetsuits.
WHAT KIND OF WETSUIT IS THE BEST FOR THE CAMP?
We recommend full suits as they also protect against the sun. 3/2 thickness is great for the Summer time. Spring suits are fine too, but often kids get cold before end of their session.
WHAT IS THE BEST PLACE TO BUY WETSUITS?
You can find used ones from Play It Again-Sports on Turnpike or from Craig’s list/SB SWAP in Facebook. Beach House has a good variety of quality suits, if you would like to get a new one and they also have an Axxess Deal. Channel Islands Surf Shop also sells wetsuits. Costco sells usually Spring suits later in the Spring.
SHOULD WE BRING OUR OWN SNACKS AND WATER BOTTLE?
We provide a snack mid morning for every one. Kids are also welcome to bring their own snacks. And please make sure to bring a water bottle with you as well, we do have water jugs to fill your water bottle if you run out.
WHAT IF MY CHILD IS ALLERGIC TO CERTAIN FOODS?
Please let us know (also if they have other allergies that we should know such as bee allergy). We try to accommodate the best we can. They are also welcome to bring their own snacks.
HOW DO YOU GET ZINKA OFF FROM THE CLOTHES?
Blue Dawn Dish Soap usually works pretty good! Make sure to treat the stain before you put it in the laundry.
