I just wanted to thank you all once again for all you do for these children and making their day so special. My son Christian was a little scared this year to go out on the surfboard. Thank you to all the efforts of the volunteers he did try it. I hope next year he will not be as frightened and enjoy himself as he did the year before. You are all such wonderful people. If Christian could talk he would tell you himself how thankful he is to all of you. Special thanks to our volunteer Dave for making our day much easier and for his patience. You are the best.

My family recently attended the Best Day Foundation Surf event in Brick, NJ on 7/17. We had such an amazing day. I wanted to thank your organization for the tremendous effort they put into this program. I was amazed at all the wonderful volunteers that came out for the day. My son's "buddies" for the event were terrific. The expression on my son's face as he rode the surf board was priceless. We look forward to attending future events with your organization. Thank you for your commitment to these very special little people!

Thank you very much for providing such a wonderful time on Sunday July 18 to our children, Michael and Kelly. They really enjoyed themselves. Their buddies, Katie and Jessica were really nice to them and the surfers gave them a lot of fun. Thank you very much for everything. Everyone from Princeton Special Sports had a great time.

Thank so much for the Best Day! WOW! This was our first time and we were so impressed. Thank you so much for all your hard work and organization. The volunteers were fantastic and our "buddy" Mariah and extra awesome helper Jacob were fantastic. Andrew is a super difficult kid and you guys got him on a board! I still can't believe it! Really amazing and I hope you know how proud of himself he is! Very cool! Thank you so much for your fabulous program giving families like our hope! Seriously, it is sooo hard raising these kind of kids and to know there are people out there who want to help, it makes me a better person and mom to Andrew.

Can't say thank you enough. It was a really special day!

Where to begin? Yesterday was MAGIC for our entire family. For our children, we just wanted them to be exposed to the event never thinking that they would get on a surf board!!

Sean, initially screaming, was gently coaxed by his “surfer buddy team” to sit on the board. They then took him out and next thing we knew Sean was kneeling and then STANDING. Michael did not go in the water, HOWEVER, he did put on a wet suit. He loved the positive sensory input of a tight fitting suit. And then, Kate…not to be outdone, she just could not believe that she had gone surfing! A huge smile pretty much says it all. We are still smiling and want to thank you and all of the AMAZING volunteers!

Just wanted to take a moment to let you know what a great day Saturday was. The families and the kids were all so grateful, I worked with Katie and we had a great time. We (the volunteers) get as much for the experience as the kids do. I am looking forward to the August event and will hopefully have a handful of volunteers with me.
