Coastal Conservators - Teen Team

Last year, I took the plunge at the Miami Beach Cupid Splash for the first time and enlisted some friends. I came with curiosity, a little nervous energy, and some crazy pink floaties. I had no idea of how cold the water would be (it wasn’t) nor of how powerful the experience would be (tremendous). After we ran into the ocean and felt the energy from everyone on the beach, we left proud to be part of something that truly supports our Bay, our beaches, and our community.

That’s why our Teen Team is coming back this year. 

What made Cupid Splash special wasn’t just the plunge, it was being part of a community that truly cares about Biscayne Bay and the future of our environment. Seeing so many people of all ages come together for a local cause made the impact feel real and personal. And I made many serendipitous connections. 

Last year, our group raised funds to support organizations working to restore and protect our coastline and it felt incredible knowing our efforts helped make a difference. This year, let’s build on that momentum and do even more!

It’s easy to get involved. You can start a team, set up a fundraising page, and invite friends to join you at cupidsplash.org, or join our Teen Team with Coastal Conservators and make some new friends. Whether you’re young or young at heart, join us by jumping in the water or cheering from the sidelines.

If you’ve been thinking about joining, now’s the time. Grab your friends, take the plunge, and be part of something bigger than yourself.

 I’ll see you on Sunday, February 15th at 10am at Collins Park Beach!
