Important dates coming up, or passing you by.

From The LIBAG site... LIBAG.org



For those of you who were unable to travel to Bonaire, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Cabo San Carlos, or Maui this winter…The water is finally ice free! We no longer have to dodge icebergs in the lineup, or risk hitting submerged ice at 20 knots. And it is about time. Soon we will be able to wear less than 5 mill of neoprene to get wet.

March 28th through April 25

The Long island and Cape Cod crews descend on Avon NC. Team riders, pros, amateurs, and rank beginners welcome.

April 24th 

LIBAG, and The Long Island Windsurfing Group would love to have your help at the Town of Babylon’s Gilgo Beach. LIBAG officially adopted Gilgo Beach. 
The clean up  will take place on Friday, April 24th, Arbor Day.
We want to thank Florence Findley from the Town of Babylon for the opportunity to help.

May 2nd
