OUTREACH TO SCHOOLS

By Carol Hankermeyer

Once again, San Carlos Charter Learning Center visited Edgewood Park, this time to revel in the spring wildflower displays of the serpentine grassland. On May 5^th Eve Ryser and Lale Beller brought their 2^nd/3^rd grade classes to the preserve as a follow-up to their fall hike in the Sylvan Loop woodland and chaparral communities. The adventure began with a picnic at the Day Camp, followed by a hike on the Edgewood Trail and Serpentine Loop.

The classes broke into four groups led by John Allen, Sam and Delpha Berry, and me. Sam's energetic group actually reached the view point of the central ridge! From there Sam showed students the San Andreas Fault line and described earthquakes and serpentine formation. They also got a good look at the chamise chaparral.`
