What’s your best therapy? Ours is this. 🚣‍♀️🌊

Fresh air. Movement. Teamwork. Time on the water. Connection to nature. A chance to breathe, reset, and move forward together.

This Day, we’re celebrating the power of outdoor spaces to support mental, physical, and social well-being—right here on the San Joaquin Delta.

At Delta Sculling Center, we see every day how movement, community, and time in nature can help people feel stronger, healthier, and more connected. Sometimes the best therapy looks like a boat full of teammates, open water, and a shared goal.

California's parks, waterways, trails, and outdoor spaces are incredible resources for improving our health and well-being. We encourage everyone to get outside, get moving, and discover what helps you recharge.

What’s your therapy?

This Saturday, Delta Sculling Center will be LIVE on Good Day Sacramento as we welcome them to our boathouse for two segments spotlighting the opportunities available right here in Stockton, on the San Joaquin river.
Tune in between 9:40–10:30 AM to catch us live. 📺🚣
Why does this matter?
Because so many people in our own community still don’t realize what’s possible right here in Stockton.
🚣 Youth can experience summer rowing camps and discover a sport that builds confidence, discipline, and connection.
🔬 Middle school students can access FREE STEM-to-Stern programming that combines hands-on learning, water safety, and sculling.
💪 Adults can try something completely new through our beginner Adult Learn-to-Row program, First Strokes.
🌊 Families can begin to see the Delta not just as something we drive past—but as a place for health, growth, belonging, and possibility.
Access changes lives—but first, people need to know the opportunity exists.
We’re grateful for Good Day Sacramento helping us spread that message and open more doors for our community. 💙

Today was one of those moments that perfectly captures what Delta Sculling Center is all about. 💙🚣
Two of our Junior Scullers joined Junior Program Manager Jessica at the 99.3 KJOY radio station today to record a public service announcement about our summer youth opportunities.
At DSC we’re not just teaching young people how to scull—we’re helping them build confidence, communication skills, leadership, and ownership in sharing the mission of Delta Sculling Center with the broader community.
Today, these youth became the voice inviting other young people to discover opportunities they may never have known existed right here in Stockton.
That’s leadership.
That’s empowerment.
That’s impact.
We’re incredibly proud of these young leaders for stepping up and helping spread the word. 🎙️

Nonprofits, that means you can send out one more email, encourage a board member, remind your barista... whoever! There actually is a few more days to put a little more money towards your good cause!

💙 COMMUNITY CHAMPIONS SHOW UP IN BIG WAYS 💙

Today, during 209Gives, we were blown away by an incredibly generous sponsorship from Mas'ood Cajee, DDS, MPH and we couldn’t be more grateful. 🚣✨

Because of this meaningful gift, Delta Sculling Center’s Junior Ambassadors and Leadership Team will be outfitted with brand-new polos for the outreach work they do representing DSC in our community. Even more exciting? This sponsorship is also helping provide a brand-new branded event tent and outreach materials so we can show up stronger, prouder, and more visibly at community events throughout the region. 🙌⛺💙

Our youth leaders are often the first faces community members meet when learning about Delta Sculling Center. They share their stories, inspire others, and help us spread the message that rowing truly changes lives.

Thank you for believing in our mission, our youth, and the power of community visibility. Your generosity will make an impact far beyond today. 💫

This is what community looks like.
