Editor’s Letter – Making Surf Therapy Safer Together

 

What could define commitment more than combining a love for the ocean, service and saftey more than Malibu’s own A Walk On Water joining forces with North Shore based Big Wave Risk Assessment Group to bring a higher level of ocean safety awareness to the surf therapy world.

The Local Malibu along with our new sister publication, The Local North Shore were thrilled to participate in this incredibly informative and potentially life changing event produced by AWOW bringing two of our favorite coastal communities together.

The dangers of the ocean and weather related issues affecting the tides is also a relevant and important public safety issue that should be addressed by local City officials yet, sadly, it has not been priority even though Malibu is recognized for being one of the most iconic surf spots in the world.

Local government has a lot to learn from the dedication and actions of these two powerful organizations committed to ensuring the safety of ocean loving enthusiasts. To learn more about AWOW support their effortsplease go to awalkonwater.org

The Current Report Editor in Chief Cece Woods started The Local Malibu, an activism based platform in 2014. The publication was instrumental in the success of pro-preservation ballot measures and seating five top vote-getters in the Malibu City Council elections.

During the summer of 2018, Woods exposed the two-year law enforcement cover-up in the Malibu Creek State Park Shootings, and a few short months later provided the most comprehensive local news coverage during the Woolsey Fire attracting over one million hits across her social media platforms.

Since 2020, Woods was the only journalist reporting on the on-going public corruption involving former L.A. Metro CEO Phil Washington. Woods worked with Political Corruption expert Adam Loew, DC Watchdog organizations and leaders in the Capitol exposing Washington which ultimately led to the withdrawal of his nomination to head the FAA.

Woods also founded Malibu based 90265 Magazine and Cali Mag devoted to the authentic southern California lifestyle.
