SPOTLIGHT
A Special Day for Kids in the Delta
Offering outdoor adventure to children with special needs, DWR has co-sponsored “Catch A Special Thrill” (C.A.S.T.) events at State Water Project reservoirs since 2005. On June 15, the first-ever C.A.S.T event was held in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, where 34 disabled and disadvantaged children gathered at Brannan Island State Recreation Area for a day of boating, fishing and education about the Delta as the hub of California’s water supply system. The Rio Vista event included a representative from the office of State Assemblyman Jim Frazier. For information about C.A.S.T. events at California reservoirs, visit http://water.ca.gov/cast/
