Event Description: Mother Lode River Center is hosting an official National Get Outdoors Day event (GO Day) from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 9, 2012. This new annual event is an outgrowth of the “Get Outdoors USA! Campaign” encouraging Americans, especially youth, to seek out Nature and healthy, active lifestyles. This GO Day event will provide children, teens and families with the opportunity to experience traditional and non-traditional outdoor activities with the hope to inspire and motivate all to get outdoors more! GO Day at Mother Lode River Center will offer a variety of FREE activities and learning opportunities for attendees including rock-climbing, zip line, hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, gold panning, gardening, and native animals. Food will be available for purchase. No registration is required although an email of anticipated attendance to boo@malode.com would be appreciated.
