Sophia Ruckriegel, 14, and her brother, Kilian Ruckriegel, 12, spearheaded, via social media, a paddle out in support of Black Lives Matter, Solidarity in Surf, Inclusion in Surf, and the creation of an anti-racist community at Napeague Lake Beach in Amagansett. More than 50 participated in the paddle out, with many more supporters on land. Through the event, over $3,000 was pledged to champion programming efforts for the community of color in Long Island, including to The Bridgehampton Child Care & Recreational Center, OLA of Eastern Long Island and Black Surfing Rockaway.
