Proceeds raised are to be used to send children to Tuolumne Trails, a five day summer camp located on Ferretti Road in Groveland. The camp is full FDA compliant including a pool that is fitted with a special ramp to allow accessibility by wheelchair. This camp makes it possible for these children to experience what every child should be able to. It is a wonderful experience for these kids.

Residents throughout the county signed up to participate. A warrant was issued for their arrest and they were placed in a patrol vehicle and brought to “Jail” at Applebee’s. The community donated money to post their bail which can be done in person or online.

Anyone can participate and donate at any time to this great cause at www.mdalockup.org/sonoraca2016.
