It's actually days on the lake. For the 19th year, Barrow Neurological Institute at Dignity Health St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center will host a series of unique events that offer families from around the country a chance to ride the waves with adapted water skiing, jet skiing, kayaking, boating and fishing.

To participate in the waterskiing and jet skiing activities, individuals must be at least 8 years old and at least one year post injury. Ages 3 and up can participate in kayaking, fishing and boating. Volunteers are also welcome.
