Under the direction of Rangers Mike Fritz and Lynn Fritz, along with Park Aide Bert Brandi, six Friends of Edgewood installed cross pieces to make a stretch of wooden fence along the service road, down and around the bend from the Sunset (Hillcrest) entrance. This fence protects a big part of the meadow west of the service road, where Bay checkerspot butterflies cavort in April.

Helping were Stew and Jan Simpson, Billy James, Leon Glahn, Don Hohl, and Carolyn Curtis. With terrific teamwork, plus camaraderie, sweet rolls, and juice, we finished the job well before noon.

This fence probably would not have been built without our volunteer labor, or would have been considerably postponed; this kind of effort is valuable for the park. If you checked the box for trail maintenance on the membership application and missed this chance to help, don't worry; there'll be other opportunities!
