AMANDA:

Hello all! Summer is upon us!
DCS wants to announce the annual summer picnic this year! We will have a summer picnic on Saturday, July 24! Save the date on the calendar! Not only we have a summer picnic, we also have something new this year! Pacific Beach Surf Shop is offering surfing lessons to the deaf community! What’s more, PBSS is generous enough to donate the proceeds of the surfing lessons to DCS!

I’ll let Jon Savage, who is working with PBSS, explain further about surfing. Know that he is Deaf and a surfer!

Please keep an eye out for next announcement with more information on the summer picnic.

With the deaf community?
