As accomplished and passionate coaches and members of the community, they have created a powerful resource to help kids, adults and those dealing with physical or mental obstacles to embrace and leverage the power of water. Through human powered water sports, they help people improve health, fitness, wellness and quality of life. Ultimately, they have built a community. Waterman’s Landing and their non-profit, Waterman Foundation Tahoe. Their programs along with a coffee shop and their foundation are making a big difference in the lives of people in Lake Tahoe and well beyond.
