What is polio?
Polio is a debilitating and life-threatening disease. A virus that can affect the brain and spinal cord, polio can cause paralysis or even death. This makes polio very dangerous, especially for New Yorkers who are unvaccinated or not up to date with their polio immunizations.
There is no cure for polio, but disease, including paralysis, is preventable through safe and effective vaccination. IPV—the only vaccine available in the U.S.—is safe and contains no live virus. It protects 99 – 100 percent of people who receive all recommended doses.
Why are we concerned?

Interpretation and Education Mission Statements

California State Parks' Interpretive Mission Statement
Interpretation is a special form of communication that helps people understand, appreciate, and emotionally connect with the rich natural and cultural heritage preserved in parks.  It is the mission of interpretation in California State Parks to convey messages that initially will help visitors value their experience, and that ultimately will foster a conservation ethic and promote a dedicated park constituency.
 
 
California State Parks' Educational Mission Statement
The most powerful forms of education are meaningful, involve the student, promote critical thinking, and appeal to different learning styles. Our mission is to provide educational experiences both in California State Parks and in the classroom, assisting educators with curriculum needs and offering activities that enable students to investigate, research, and participate in interactive learning.
 
 
Interpretation and Education Division's Mission Statement
Our mission is to inspire and promote excellence in interpretation and education for California State Parks.  We fulfill our mission by providing leadership, coordination and support for interpretive services statewide.

Spring Lake Regional Park
Water Bark dog swim: The Water Bark is a multi-weekend off-leash dog party where pets are invited to play in the lagoon after the summer swim season ends. Learn more about the Water Bark dog swim.

Boating
Spring Lake is a 72-acre reservoir for boating (no gas engines) and paddling. All boaters and paddlers must wear a floatation device. The lake surface is sometimes marked by azolla, an aquatic fern. Azolla growth varies due to weather conditions, and Regional Parks coordinates treatment to have the most lasting benefit for seasonal boating.

Newanga Avenue entrance: A year-round paved boat ramp for boats up to 16 feet is at the end of the Newanga Avenue entrance. Trailered boats (electric motors only), kayaks and paddleboards can launch here.
Violetti Road entrance: Kayaks and paddleboards can be rented from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. The rental launch is near the parking area at the end of the Violetti Road entrance. 

Rent Kayaks or Paddleboards
Camping
Spring Lake has 31 campsites set in an oak woodland above the lake. Tent, trailer and RV campers are welcome. Maximum RV length is 31 feet. Three campsites feature sleeping cabins. 
Reservations are required and can be made up to 12 months in advance online or by calling the reservations office at (707) 565-2267 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Monday-Friday.

More Things to Do

Environmental Discovery Center: The Environmental Discovery Center is a natural history center featuring hands-on displays and exhibits for children and families.

Accessibility
Paddling - NYSDEC
Northern Forest Canoe Trail- This is a 740-mile (1,190 km) marked canoeing trail in the northeastern United States and Canada, extending from Old Forge in the Adirondacks of New York to Fort Kent, Maine.

 White Water
 

Zoar Valley Multiple Use Area - This area is known for spectacular scenery created by a deep gorge, sheer cliffs, flowing waterfalls, and dense forests. The rapids in the gorge normally range from Class 2 through Class 4, depending on water level.
Hudson Gorge Wilderness - Whether you are a hardcore thrill seeker or have a family, rafting through the Hudson Gorge is one of the most thrilling experiences on an Adirondack water.
Letchworth State Park- This park features the Genesee River flowing through a meandering 550-foot deep river gorge lined with slate cliffs. The rapids in the gorge normally range from Class 2 through Class 3, depending on water level.
Water Releases for Esopus Creek Recreational Events - DEC facilitates the recreational use of Esopus Creek by directing New York City to make increased diversions into the creek for whitewater events on up to four weekends per year. Historically, the Department has received requests from a consortium of recreational groups that hold these events including American Whitewater, the Kayak and Canoe Club of New York, the Appalachian Mountain Club, and the American Canoe Association. These groups coordinate scheduling with other planned boating events throughout the region.

Protect YourselfAlways wear a personal flotation device (PFD, aka life jacket) while on or along the water. Especially when water temperatures are cold or when currents are swift.Immersion in cold waters can quickly result in lowering of core body temperature, leading to inability to move, hypothermia and drowning. Wearing a PFD can prevent drowning.Falling in to swift currents can easily result in being pulled and kept under water and collisions with rocks, logs and other objects causing injury. A PFD can prevent drowning. A helmet is strong recommended when paddling in whitewater and other swift currents.State law requires all children under 12 to wear a PFD while on a watercraft.State law also requires all people on a pleasure vessel less than 21 feet long to wear a PFD between November 1 and May 1.Large waves can form on large waters bodies with steady winds.
