This has also been posted on Gold State Glassics (GSG) Forum and the GSG on Facebook a month ago. I know there are some California lurkers here, so if you are in and around the Central California area, you are welcome to come and join us, no boat no problem. Just stop by, say hello and meet some of us.
Hello everyone, this year we are planning a fun entire day with y’all. Mercedes and I, along with the GSG Delta and Sacramento folks, would like to organize another Day on the Delta, Family Picnic and Boating. This will be on Saturday April 11th and will be held at Hogback Island Park and Recreation Facility in Walnut Grove, CA. Again this will be an entire day mixed with different activities throughout the day. It’s basically a day of fun with family, friends, good food, games, and boating.
For those who are not familiar, here is a brief description of the last Day on the Delta from 2013 and will be the same for 2015:
Day on the Delta is more of an entire day activity where people can come when they like and hang out till the early evening or as late as they like. We’ll just plan it like a family style picnic, potluck, and very informal. This will be at Hogback Island Recreation Facility. This Delta facility is for people who enjoy fishing, recreational boating, rowing, picnics and barbecues. We’ll arrive early and find a nice spot in this small park. Once everyone gets settled, we’ll have lunch. Afterwards, we’ll plan a fast 31 mile cruise around Grand Island. We’ll stop at the small Delta town of Walnut Grove, mile 14, for some ice cream for the kids, and continue on for another 17 miles and return to the park. This 31 mile cruise and ice cream run will take around 3 hours give and take, then we'll be back at the picnic for rest, socialize, and play. My wife Mercedes and maybe another person will stay behind to watch over our stuff in the park. Maybe for those anglers out there, arrive early, launch the boat and fish for a couple of hours. The best part of this is that it’s whatever you want to do and come and go as you please.
Eduardo & Mercedes
