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 active, healthy 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 a climbing wall, zip line, hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, gold panning, gardening, and a native plant and animal study. Food will be available for purchase. No registration is required although an email of anticipated attendance would be appreciated. Email: heather@malode.com or call: 530-626-4187.
