Stanislaus County Parks and Recreation is bringing a Boat Expo to the main boat ramp of
Woodward Reservoir from Friday, April 20th through Sunday, April 22nd, 2018. Hours of the event
are Friday, 12 p.m. – 5 p.m., Saturday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., and Sunday 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. The public is
invited to come to the event for a day spent outdoors, perusing impressive boats and sporting
equipment, enjoying food, and spending quality time with friends and family.
“This event further supports the Department’s mission of providing family-friendly events throughout
the year to our community.” said Jami Aggers, Director, Stanislaus County Parks & Recreation.
“We’ve also invited many local businesses and organizations to participate as vendors and help us
build a great event for our visitors.”
The event will feature boat vendors from throughout the Central Valley, including Bob’s Marine of
Modesto, Norcal Mastercraft of Discovery Bay, and C&C Marine of Modesto. Modesto-area
motorcycle vendor Honda Kawasaki KTM will also be bringing ATV’s and motorcycles out to the
event. And if you forget your sunscreen, Crescent Work & Outdoor will be selling everything you
need to enjoy a day outdoors at the reservoir.
All of this will be taking place on the main boat ramp overlooking Woodward’s sparkling waters.
Woodward Reservoir is located on Twenty-Six Mile Road, off Highway 120, north of Oakdale.
Admission to the park is $10 per carload for Stanislaus County residents and $15 for out-of-county
