Kayak, Raft, or Canoe the American River Parkway After running the whitewater of South Fork American River and crossing Folsom Reservoir, the American River delegation will again be welcoming the public to join them in boating down the beautiful American River Parkway, the grand jewel of the Sacramento County Park System. The Tuolumne River Trust has a particular affection for the American River Parkway - we see it as a model for the Tuolumne River Parkway (a mosaic of 25 parks and restoration sites) that we have been working to create for many years.

State Capitol River Rally Paddlers from the other two Paddle to the Sea rivers (Tuolumne and Merced) will join the American River delegation to travel a short stretch on the Sacramento River and then pull out and process with their boats along the 8 blocks of the Capitol Mall to a River Rally on steps of the State Capitol! A leg for the river activist in all of us. Paddlers who have completed other legs of Paddle to the Sea are especially encouraged to come along. Leg 7a, State Capitol River Rally - Monday, June 18
