📢 SURVEY EXTENDED TO JUNE 7! 📢

Help Shape the Future of San Joaquin County Parks and Recreation!

Good news — we've extended our community survey deadline to June 7! We are creating the San Joaquin County Parks and Recreation Master Plan to guide the next 10 years of enhancing, maintaining and expanding County parks, open spaces, recreational opportunities and the zoo.

We want to hear from you! Please take 10–15 minutes to complete our community survey and share your thoughts.

As a thank you, participants who provide their email address at the end of the survey will be entered into a drawing for an annual pass to San Joaquin County’s regional parks!

Don't miss this opportunity to help shape the future of parks and recreation in San Joaquin County. Complete the survey by June 7!

Attention Boaters! YOU are the first line of defense against the spread of invasive Golden
Mussels in the San Joaquin Delta that can hitchhike on boats and survive in many conditions. Protect the Delta. Protect our wildlife.

Before leaving ANY waterbody, always:
• CLEAN your boat and gear
• DRAIN all water (bilges, ballast, buckets)
• DRY completely

Report suspected mussels at https://bit.ly/ReportGoldenMussels.

For more information about the Golden Mussel visit the CA Dept. of Fish & Wildlife wildlife.ca.gov/Conservation/Invasives/Species/Golden-Mussel.
