Ever wonder what happens over breaks? 👀❓

When sessions are closed for a few weeks, our team stays been busy behind the scenes getting everything ready for return.

At the barn, staff use the time to organize equipment, take inventory, tidy spaces, and make sure everything is set for a smooth return. Therapists and instructors also write reports and update goals.

Our horses also enjoy a slower pace with daily grooms, lots of attention, and a mix of gentle exercise to keep their bodies and minds feeling good. Their routines include hand walks, turnouts, rides, and ground driving sessions, balanced with plenty of naps and pampering time.

Rest, care, and preparation are just as important as the work itself, and we are so excited to bring all of this energy into 2026, which has already started off strong! 💪

Golden winter days, shared stoke. 🌊✨

There’s nothing better than surfing in the “off-season” - especially this amazingly warm winter - fewer crowds, beautiful waves, and high fives with the people who have your back, always.

Did you know we can offer group activities? These offerings are perfect for team-building, field trips, birthdays, scout groups, and more! 🤩🤯😮

Earlier this year we welcomed a Girl Scout troop to our barn for a hands-on horsemanship day 🤍

The girls learned all about what goes into caring for horses, including basic horse anatomy, grooming, and safe leading techniques. It was so fun watching them ask questions, build confidence, and spend time getting to know our herd.

We’re happy to host a limited number of small group horsemanship opportunities for Girl Scouts, school groups, and similar organizations. To learn more or inquire please contact our office at info@surfandturftherapy.org ✨

We had so much holiday cheer this year across all of our holiday events🎄✨

One of the highlights was our 2nd annual Holiday Party! A huge thank you to Agape 1928 for hosting us and to Tony Copp for making the event happen.

The celebration was filled with great company, festive fun, and a special visit from Santa that made the day even more magical for everyone who attended.

We also celebrated our 6th Annual Santa Paddle, led by volunteer Stacy Savage. The Santa Paddle raised over $1,500 in support of Surf & Turf Therapy! This event always brings new volunteers to our program and we are so grateful for the generosity and community spirit behind it.

Thank you for ending the year with us. We’re incredibly grateful to step into 2026 with such a supportive and uplifting community by our side 🤍

This fall, our staff trained with Scott, from A Hero for Life, to review life-saving skills and stay prepared for
emergencies! 🚑💙

Training included infant, pediatric, and adult CPR , general first aid, AED, and the Heimlich maneuver. Throughout the year, our team also participates in ongoing education to stay up to date on best practices in services, safety, and horsemanship!
🐴💫

Office manager Posey was even checking out the fun and was very concerned for the CPR manikins. 🐶

We are looking to add two AED units to our program to increase cardiac safety for our riders, surfers, volunteers, and families; each unit runs about $1,500 to $2,000, and if you are interested in sponsoring this life-saving equipment please comment below or reach out to jillian@surfandturftherapy.org or call the office 949-312-7227 ext 0.

We are so grateful for our partnership with the - NCL Laguna Chapter, who helped create these beautiful volunteer thank-you bags to celebrate this season of gratitude. 💙

Our Surf & Turf volunteers at the barn - don’t forget to grab one before you head out! And to our surfers, we’ll be bringing them to the beach as well. 🌊

Thank you to our incredible volunteers and community partners who show up for our participants in so many ways. There is so much to be grateful for year-round, and it feels especially meaningful to pause and reflect together.
