Tule Ocean Canoe Will Greet The American Cup in 2013
Starting early this fall The Cultural Conservancy featuring Diana Alemendariz will again be working with SMI to preserve the health of native waters by supporting the teaching of canoe making. In September of 2012, these experts joined us at SMI to again harvest Tule’s from “The Lake” with a goal of building a multi-ethnic ocean canoe that will sail under the Golden Gate Bridge to meet the America’s Cup in July 2013.
