Los Caminos

One of the people we meet up with is the Executive Director of Los Caminos del Rio (www.loscaminos.org) "Los Caminos del Rio began as a Texas Historical Commission exercise in historic and cultural preservation back in 1991. Fresh investment from the Meadows Foundation has reinvigorated our pursuit of National Heritage Area status for the Corridor from Laredo to Brownsville. Through a robust mix of place-based education, support for the arts and outdoor sports we make the Valley a more interesting place to live. Los Caminos promotes cultural heritage, ecotourism and active outdoor living on both sides of the Lower Rio Grande."

He has invited us to help promote and recruit for a kayaking day on the river with people and their dogs. I'm totally excited. :)
