Creek Pro – Paddle Leadership Experience

Creek Pro – Paddle Leadership Experience
Formerly known as Elite Paddle Camp

Creek Pro is not your average summer program. Designed for teens ages 12–18, this immersive 2.5-hour session runs Tuesday through Thursday and offers a dynamic blend of high-level Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), personal growth, and leadership training. Several past participants have even gone on to join our staff, turning their passion into purpose.

Participants will be challenged mentally and physically through structured paddle sessions aimed at pushing their limits—on the water and within themselves. They’ll gain hands-on experience with board handling, including retrieving their SUP from the storage rack, prepping it for a paddle session, and properly stowing it post-session. Along the way, they’ll also learn about how Oceanport Paddle Club operates, gaining insight into what it takes to run a successful water-based business.

More than just a skills course, Creek Pro builds pride, confidence, respect, and grit. It’s where future leaders are shaped by the rhythm of the river. With a max of just 10 participants per day, instruction is personal, impactful, and led by experienced mentors with over 25 years of combined SUP and waterman knowledge.

This program is not for the casual paddler. It’s for teens ready to lead, to grow, and to paddle with purpose. Several past participants have returned as instructors—proof that Creek Pro is more than a program. It’s a launching pad.
