Golden State Road Trips: Dos Rios State Park
California has hundreds of state parks ranging from Big Basin Redwoods State Park (est. 1902) to the newest park, Dos Rios State Park, still under development in Stanislaus County about ten miles west of Modesto.
Dos Rios, named for the two rivers that run through it, is a quiet, low-key park with an air of timelessness and serenity. It is only open Fridays through Sundays at this time.

Cyndy Green and Michael Cockrell joined forces in retirement. Their combined skills and knowledge enable them to weave complex issues into informative videos for our Soundings audience.
Cyndy Green began her career as one of the early women behind a camera in TV news. After 28 years in broadcast news and another eight teaching broadcasting, she still can’t live without a camera in hand and an editing computer nearby, so in retirement she continues creating visual stories.
Michael Cockrell’s public service career has included law enforcement, water conservation enforcement, and emergency management. After 35-years at San Joaquin County’s Office of Emergency Services (OES), he retired as Director in December 2017. His OES experience between 1982-2017 included a wide range of emergencies and disasters. He is passionate about educating and informing the public.
