EDGEWOOD’S TRAIL PATROL
 |
|
Marshall Lim |
As part of the County’s volunteer program coordinated by Ranger Nick Ramirez, Trail Patrollers supplement the ranger staff by walking Edgewood’s trails and educating park visitors about the special care required to protect our natural preserve.
Six new members joined the patrol this year. They are Gary Cornelsen, Larry and Ann Gordon, Jerry and Claudette Gow, and Daphne Pereas.
Edgewood Trail Patrol coordinator Marshall Lim is recruiting new volunteers for 2007. No special background or knowledge is required, only a desire to help out. After Nick approves your paperwork, Marshall gives you a one-on-one orientation at the Park, at the end of which you graduate and receive your special cap and patch.
Most of the need is on weekends when the park is most heavily used, but some patrollers like to walk during the week.
Whatever time you can volunteer will help. To volunteer, contact either Nick at NRamirez@co.sanmateo.ca.us or (650) 599-1306 or Marshall at marshall_lim@yahoo.com for more information.
As a bonus, Trail patrollers have the opportunity to take County-sponsored first aid and CPR courses if they desire.
