Seelig Joins Board of Shake-A-Leg Miami

Freedom Boat Club of Northeast Florida’s Co-Owner Kevin Seelig has joined the board of directors of Shake-A-Leg Miami, a nonprofit organization based in South Florida, according to a media release. The organization first introduced Seelig to boating and he was nominated to the board by Shake-A-Leg’s Co-Founder and President, Harry Horgan.

Horgan established the nonprofit in 1990 to help improve the health, education, and independence of children and adults with physical, developmental, or economic challenges by introducing them to the marine environment through sailing, boating, canoeing and other water sports, the release states. 

“I am deeply honored to be nominated to serve on the board of directors for Shake-A-Leg Miami,” Seelig said in the release. “This organization’s dedication to empowering individuals of all abilities through marine-based programs aligns closely with my passion for boating and community engagement. I look forward to contributing to their impactful mission and helping to expand opportunities for those they serve.”

Seelig first became involved with Shake-A-Leg when he was a child. He started as a camper in the nonprofit’s summer camp, then became a volunteer and ultimately an employee, where he worked until he was 18.

“Kevin’s journey with Shake-A-Leg Miami—from camper to staff member to Board of Directors—is a testament to his passion and dedication,” Horgan said in the release. “His life experiences and leadership embody the heart of our mission to empower individuals of all abilities. We are honored to have him on our board, helping us create even greater opportunities for the community we serve.”
