This group is for those interested in becoming members of the Surfrider Foundation Connecticut Chapter. This chapter is in its formative stages and could use volunteers to help out. Everyone is invited - our goal is to protect the Connecticut Coastline for the benefit all. Please email or post to join or for more information. Thank you! The Surfrider Foundation is a grassroots, non-profit, environmental organization that works to protect our oceans, waves, and beaches. Founded in 1984, Surfrider Foundation's most important coastal environmental work is carried out by Surfrider Foundation's 60 chapters located along the East, West, Gulf, Puerto Rican, and Hawaiian coasts.
