California surf therapy nonprofit organization A Walk on Water (AWOW) hosts a day of surf therapy for children and adults with special needs to mark the end of the 2017 surf season on Saturday, Nov. 11, from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. at Surfrider Beach. Athletes and guests can check in for the day at First Point.

The event will include surfing, relaxation, healthy refreshments, arts and crafts, massage therapy, and more. The day will have two sessions, both of which will end with an awards ceremony to recognize the athletes and their families.

The outing marks the fifth event the nonprofit has hosted in Malibu since 2014. Anyone interested in volunteering can go to awalkonwater.org or visit their Instagram page at instagram.com/awalkonwater.
