Kayaking for St. Elizabeth 2025

Thanks to all for your support for St. Elizabeth Elementary School. St. Elizabeth continues its long history of great education for young people in the heart of Oakland's Fruitvale.

St. Elizabeth mission of serving many families is more important than ever and  I am once again training for my fourth time kayaking for Saint Elizabeth.

This year's route honors Oakland: my home town! The 12 - 15 mile route features Oakland's Middle Harbor and Port of Oakland’s world-class container terminal, Jack London Square, Brooklyn Basin, Jingletown and Fruitvale waterfronts and on to East Oakland’s Arrowhead Marsh in San Leandro Bay.
