READ THE FULL ARTICLE FOR DETAILS OF THIS EXCITING ADVENTURE!

I wanted this fundraiser to be for an organization that matched up closely with the Mokelumne River, Source to the Sea expedition and choosing the Foothill Conservancy was an easy & logical choice!

All donations for this expedition to benefit the Foothill Conservancy should be made directly to the Amador Community Foundation.

SMOKECHASERS EVENT – “BEAT THE SMOKE”

The SmokeChasers event is a two-day, outdoor festival to bring emergency preparedness information to Amador County residents. Tickets are available at their website: http://www.smokechasersevent.com/

This family and community-oriented event provides a fun, engaging way for local and nearby residents to learn how to prepare for and respond to emergencies. Throughout the day you can watch demonstrations, participate in activities, visit informative booths, meet first responders, enjoy craft beer and local wines, and purchase delicious open fire “smoked” BBQ. All while listening to live music, meeting K-9 teams and rescued wildlife, and visiting over four dozen vendors onsite sharing their artisan crafts and products to help make your home more secure.
