Our mission is to preserve and restore San Joaquin River lands having ecological, scenic or historic significance, to educate the public on the need for stewardship, to research issues affecting the river, and to promote educational, recreational and agricultural uses consistent with the protection of the river’s resources.
The River Parkway Trust is introducing an exciting community project to connect the San Joaquin River Parkway’s Lewis S. Eaton Trail system between Fresno and Madera Counties.
The River Parkway Trust completed a feasibility study and concept design for a multi-purpose non-vehicular trail bridge to cross the San Joaquin River just downstream of the Highway 41 corridor. It is proposed to be built on public land within the San Joaquin River Conservancy’s River West Open Space Area. The study and design was made possible by a donation to the Trust from Virginia Eaton.

“Our final responsibility is to that of future generations, to take steps today to ensure a lasting and healthy river for tomorrow full of fresh clean water with abundant fish and wildlife, trees and plants, and scenic vistas to enjoy.”
