Our Mission

To create a rally point—a sanctuary and support network— where Active Military, Veterans, First Responders, and their families come together in fellowship. United by a commitment to address mental health challenges and support those facing illnesses developed in service, we foster emotional healing and resilience through water-based activities and a caring, empowered community.
We are more than an organization, we are an ever growing family.

MISSION 50:
PADDLING FOR PURPOSE

Every year, our dedicated paddlers embark on an incredible journey: a 50-mile open ocean voyage from St Augustine to Mayport.

PROGRAMS

Task Force Hydro One offers a variety of programs that blend the excitement of surfing and paddling with a focus on community and personal growth.

Surfing

Our Stokin’ Saturdays are a family-friendly beach meetup every 3rd Saturday of the month. Meet us between 8 am and 12 pm at Hanna Park to surf, paddle, and play, regardless of your skill level.

Paddling

Paddle our Hawaiian Outrigger Canoes up to 3 times a week in the ocean and Intercoastal waterways of St. Augustine. We have a competitive team anyone can join, and we compete all across the southeast.
