Let's Go to Surfing Camp!

Cowabunga, Dude!  The first annual surfing camp for children with autism and Asperger's Syndrome starts on March 31.  A very exciting alternative to Spring Break.  The University of Miami and Nova Southeastern University Center for Autism and Related Disabilities (UM-NSU CARD) are co-hosting this event.  The two groups provides educational and psychological services to 4,000 individuals with autism in the Miami-Dade county area.

At the surfing camp, the attendees get experience in surfing, snorkeling, exploring marine life, and studying basic oceanography and  meteorology.
