Beach Day Ventura Summer's Beach
2025-06-12 11:00 - 14:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Summer’s Beach Ventura, is 2866-2868 Pacific Coast Highway, Ventura, United States
What: ACHEV Beach Day, tots to teens! ACHEV Grads welcome. The little kids like to play in the sand, boogie board close to shore, the older kids boogie board, body surf, dig holes and play sports on the sand. We have a great time, so please join us for fun, fellowship, and checking P.E. off your list =)
Where: Beach North of Emma Wood and just south of Solimar and South of Mondos. It’s called Summer’s Beach – park for free along the highway. Take the California State Beaches exit off the 101 fwy. https://maps.apple.com/place?ll=34.306528,-119.351567&q=Marked%20Location&_ext=EiQpJzQpTzwnQUAxBaWsEYDWXcA5JzQpTzwnQUBBBaWsEYDWXcA%3D&t=h That is the marked location where we will meet. There is a handicap ramp to take you down to the beach and a porta potty street side. There should be a good deal of parking.
How to Find Us: Come Down the handicap ramp, and if you are facing the water, turn left and we will be close by on the left hand side (that’s the plan anyways). You can look for my red SUV along the highway. It’s a Subaru Ascent with a roof rack.
Directions: The address at the marked location is 2866-2868 Pacific Coast Highway. Take the California State Beaches exit off the 101 fwy.

Let me know if you plan to come so we can look out for you. Can’t wait to see you there! Email bonnieadair@verizon.net or text me at 805-504-6457, but if I’m already at the beach, I might not hear my phone. =)

Sandcastle Competition
2026-07-28 10:00 - 12:00 | Harbor Cove Beach, 1950 Spinnaker Drive, Ventura, CA, 93001, United States
Calling all master builders! Join us for a sandcastle showdown. Bring your creativity and get ready to dig in the sand. Sign up with your team or put your name down to be assigned a team and make new friends! 🙂
SIGN UP!
Please read over this section with your student so they understand the judging criteria and rules.
Sandcastle competition rules:

Building time will start at 10AM and end at 11:15AM. If you are early you may set up your equipment but may not begin any work. If you are late, you can still get to work but will not get any extra time.
Sand & water only: The structure must be built using only sand and water. No additives. Sticks and rocks may not be used internally to hold structure up.
Natural decorations ONLY: You may decorate with items naturally found on a beach. You may scavenger ahead of time and bring beach items into competition. So, get out there and start collecting 🙂 (No glitter, paint, toys, glass, trash etc.)
Tools: Molds and forms OK. buckets, bowls, shovels, hand tools, measuring spoons etc. please remove molds and forms before judging begins.
You may not vote for your own castle.
Deep holes dug for water or sand must be completely filled in before leaving the beach.

How Judging will work:
Every person present will be given three different colored popsicle sticks. When time runs out you will hand the popsicle stick to your favorite castles based on creativity, difficulty, and most detailed.
Red = creativity
Is it unique? Is there a theme?
Blue = difficulty
Was this really hard to build? Is it super tall?
Green = most detailed
Are there windows, bridges, a lot of decoration?
The group with the most amount of one color will win that category.
