RANGER ROUNDUP By Ric Munds San Mateo County Parks and Recreation will sponsor an Earth and Trail Day kickoff event at Flood Park on Saturday, April 20, 2002, which is Earth Day. The event will begin at 11:00 a.m. and end at 3:00 p.m. The theme is “Earth Day Embraces All Cultures.” This event will promote community participation and awareness of the various environmental programs and environmental education opportunities that exist throughout San Mateo County. There will be displays for each organization represented at the event. The California Native Plant Society (CNPS) will be providing a display. We are looking forward to having all of our Friends groups and other park volunteers participate. In addition, Edgewood County Park and Preserve will have a workday on Saturday, April 27, 2002. Sign-in will start at 8:30 a.m. and work will begin at 9:00 a.m. CNPS holds their weekly weeding party at Edgewood every Friday morning at 8:30 a.m. Please contact Ken Himes for details. The Audubon Society gives a bird walk at Edgewood on the last Sunday of every month at 8 a.m. The walk begins in the day camp parking lot. Please contact Lee Franks for further details. We appreciate all the volunteers at Edgewood for the work and time they contributed last year. Total volunteer hours for 2001 were approximately 5,000! The volunteer effort has made such a positive difference in the park. Thank you very much! |
