January 27, 2012 - The Save Our Yuba State Parks campaign has collected over 10,000 letters and petition signatures addressed to Governor Jerry Brown with one clear message: Keep our Yuba State Parks open!

Please join us as we caravan down to the State Capitol in Sacramento to hand-deliver these petitions directly to Governor Brown, Resource Secretary John Laird, and Parks Director Ruth Coleman on Wednesday, February 8, 2012.

A large turnout accompanying these 10,000 signatures will show the Governor that our community will not allow the South Yuba River and Malakoff Diggins State Parks to close.

Please RSVP on Facebook to let us know that you can come and be part of this powerful delegation.

Logistics:

Meet at the State Capitol at 10:30am (We will have a Hearing Room assigned to us.) We will have a short program with guest speakers active in the local and statewide effort to save California's State Parks. Afterwards we will hand-deliver the 10,000 signatures to the Governor's office.

To caravan down from Nevada County, please meet up at the Safeway parking lot at 105 Neal Street in Grass Valley at 8:30am.

We will post more logistical information on SYRCL's Facebook events page very soon.

If you are not on Facebook, please RSVP to Miriam Limov, SYRCL's River People Coordinator at Miriam@syrcl.org
