Thank you so much for sharing this!! This will be our first year at the event - we are nervous and excited and hope that our almost 3 year son Dakota gets as much out of this as Gavin did!! ~ The LaBelles
@Labelles0214 Hi! Did you see Gavin and his CAP worker while you were there? Liz said she was approached by a couple with a 3 year old little boy. That is so awesome!! How did Dakota do? Hope he got out there before the storm hit!!!
@thereiderfamily Yes! We did meet Gavin! We're the ones Liz was talking about. Dakota did GREAT! He was in the 9 a.m. group & surfed with Zane. It was a little rough at first, but he did 3 runs & was out around 30 minutes - AMAZING! We put some videos up on Facebook (you can friend request me if you are on FB - Vicki LaBelle). Hope to meet you in person sometime! I think our boys have had some of the same great therapists - Channing & Briana :)
That was a great video. Looks like you all had a great time. Im getting involved in this program in Ireland this summer and if it is any thing like your video I can waite to hit the surf. keep up the surfing and good work.
It's nice to see Gavin thriving! Isn't amazing how the ocean and surfing can heal! We pray for Gavin and the rest of your family daily and we are blessed to have you guys as our friends even though we are miles apart. God Bless you guys and we loved the video!
What a marvelous video. Thank you for sharing it. This is a marvelous program that benefits both the adults and children. It brings a warm smile to us all. What a joy!
Thank you for sharing...Gavin, you are an amazing, handsome fellow. I cried throughout the entire video. Keep up the great work that you are doing as Gavin's wonderful parents.
I even cryied watching this video. I felt so happy to see your child smiling. My son has autism too, and now i would like to know more about that theraphy... keep working with your child... he's so cute.
