 The Tuolumne River Trust organized the event to build support for better 
 stewardship of the Tuolumne River which provides drinking water to 2.5 
 million people in San Francisco and three other Bay Area counties.  More 
 than 1,500 people have participated in the journey to help save the salmon, 
 promote water conservation, and teach the next generation of river stewards 
 by connecting kids to the River.  Paddlers rafted the famed whitewater run, 
 canoed through the Lower Tuolumne past the confluence with the San Joaquin, 
 made their way through the Delta, and will kayak into Pier 39 this 
 Saturday.\n\nWho     \nRoss Mirkarimi, San Francisco Supervisor (Confirmed)
