Where/When: , 7 Camp Evers Lane. Sunday, 10-11 a.m.

Why Go: We wrote about this in our kids’ planner because we wanted to be sure everyone knew about this fundraiser. But this is the way that you can do something for yourself and do something to help Bryan Stow and his family. One to One Health, a new personal training and group fitness class studio, is offering a special three-part class that will get you feeling better in more ways than one. It's a class that everyone can do and 90 percent of the fees you pay will go to the Stow family.

 Pricing: $15, but larger donations are encouraged and accepted.

Where/When: , 701 West Cliff Dr., Santa Cruz. Friday, 11 a.m.-1 p.m.

Why Go: We mentioned this in our kids’ planner, but who are we kidding, surfing is about us adults, too, especially when we are taking a look back 25 years. If you have lived on the beach or near it, you have got to have some affinity for the surf culture, even if you haven't surfed yourself. Help the museum celebrate its 25th anniversary.

Pricing: Free

Where/When: Arboretum, , 1156 High St. Sunday, 1-5 p.m., with a pre-event meet and greet starting at noon.
