Protecting Delta Farmers:
Meeting California’s Water Needs Through Conservation
On the evening of March 6, 2008 Restore the Delta will hold a community event featuring:
John Herrick, General Manager of the South Delta Water Agency
and
Heather Cooley from the Pacific Institute!
Mr. Herrick will speak on the water needs of Delta farmers, Delta water quality, and the history of water for Delta farmers.
Ms. Cooley will talk about how water conservation can help to restore the Delta and meet the state’s water needs.
The event will be held at the Sunset Bar and Grill at Tower Park Resort 14900 W. Highway 12, Lodi. A dinner buffet will be available at 6:00 p.m. The program will begin at 6:45 and last until 8:15 p.m. Dinner costs $20 per person, including tax and gratuities, and is payable at the door. Restore the Delta will provide coffee and dessert.
In addition, Restore the Delta will be asking for a free will donation to cover the program and to help with general fundraising. Please RSVP to Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla at your earliest convenience email: Barbara[at]restorethedelta.org in order to confirm your attendance at dinner and the event.
Both dinner and the program are open to the community, and because Restore the Delta is a community organization, we have secured several scholarships so that interested students, or community members living on a limited income, can attend dinner and the event free of charge. To arrange for a scholarship, please contact Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla. Scholarship awards will remain confidential.
