OG Surf & Skate Supports Surfing Event for Children with Disabilities
OG Surf & Skate epitomizes the concept of a disability friendly business!
In spring of 2015, OG Surf & Skate donated gift bags to children with
disabilities at an event sponsored by the Best Day Foundation. With
great volunteers and assistive technology accommodations to surf
boards, children with physical and cognitive disabilites were able to surf
for the first time in their lives! Sports and physical activities are often
limited for children with disabilities. Best Day Foundation banishes this
limitation by making surfing accessible!
OG Surf & Skate sells specially selected merchandise, such as
contemporary and comfortable surf and beach clothing, accessories,
and sports gear for surfing and skating enthusiasts. Visit OG Surf
& Skate online or in person by making a trip to the quaint,
Victorian inspired beach town of Ocean Grove, New Jersey.
