Bike the Watershed 3 Riders at China Camp
Bike the Watershed 3
The Gallinas Watershed Council visited China Camp State Park on their annual bike ride through the watershed.
On our 3rd Annual GWC “BIKE THE WATERSHED” Bicycle Tour took us from Santa Venetia to China Camp Village for the annual Heritage Day event that takes place in China Camp Village.
In China Camp we met several volunteers working with Friends of China Camp (FOCC)
Thank you FOCC! We really enjoyed the cultural, historical and environmental activities of Heritage Day. We even got to see historic boats including the Grace Quan, a reproduction Chinese Junk.

We start and end up at Adrian Rosal Park in Santa Venetia, and after the ride there was a BBQ and we even gave away some prizes!
BIKE THE WATERSHED is a FREE event.
