D&T Kin: Eid al-Adha Family Rafting Adventure!
July 9, 2022 - July 11, 2022
$330
For men, women, and children 8+
All creeds welcome.
Cancel your Eid plans. We’ve got a better idea!
Dust and Tribe, in collaboration with OARS, brings you two days and 21 miles of whitewater fun along the South Fork of the American River! Steeped in Gold Rush history, the American River is lined with oak and pine forests that tumble through the Sierra Nevada foothills, creating valleys and gorges that mirror the flow and rolling rapids of this classic California river.
This is our annual family adventure, open to ages 8 and up.
We only do one a year, so don’t miss it!
On Saturday, July 9th, we’ll gather for a night under the stars at the OARS American River Outpost, about an hour outside of Sacramento, where we’ll enjoy:
-
- Our own group campsite
- Beach access for swimming in the river
- Full men’s and women’s bathrooms with hot showers and flush toilets
- Games, including horseshoes, volleyball, and a life-size chess board
- Easy walking distance to local cafes
- Nature trails
- Free WiFi
On the morning of Sunday, July 10th we’ll rise early for the Eid prayer before putting into the river for five hours of whitewater fun, breaking for lunch before returning to camp.
On the morning of Monday, July 11th we’ll take a shuttle to our next put-in for another three hours of roiling, wet madness before ending the day back at the OARS Outpost to break camp and head home with a heart full of memories to last a lifetime, insha Allah.
We’ve negotiated a private launch just for our group with scheduled prayer breaks. You are responsible for bringing your own food and camping gear.
This is a family trip, so bring the kids (8+) and join 40 or 50 of your new best friends and reserve your spots today!
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.
Book a spot for each member of your family with a 50% deposit ($165) that is fully refundable up to 60 days prior to our trip (refund deadline Monday 5/10/2022). Refunds will not be offered after the aforementioned date except in cases of a documented or suspected COVID infection within 10 days of the event.
