Boulder Surf Club, University of Colorado, Boulder

The Boulder Surf Club is the only organized group of land-locked surfers.  These students have shared waves, stories, and experiences together.  In addition, many have gained real world experience and listed the BSC on their resumes to highlight skills learned in fund raising, marketing, sponsorship, and travel, all of which serve as great talking points in job interviews.  This is great and all, but more importantly this “Boulder Surf Club” can be the gateway to future travels and surf adventure throughout the globe.  Upon returning from Return to Freedom Ranch, the BSC will have two “surf and service” trips under their belt and with much to say to our friends, families and the entire Boulder community.   With the help of sponsors and our own fund raising efforts, students can continue to travel the world and donate time at some of the world’s most secluded and far out surf destinations.  The BSC could use a push in leadership, let us know if your a student and want to get involved.
