Join the Rich City Rays plus other local environmental justice organizations for an October weekend action day camp right here in Richmond! Two days of kayaking, NVDA skills training, and learning from one another in community at Point Molate Beach.
Not a kayaker? We will come together on land with a variety of environmental justice minded community groups to share learnings, find ways to collaborate and build together, and overall vision for a more green and just Richmond and Bay Area.
