NEW DOCENT GRADS By Mary K. Wilson, Docent Training Coordinator We’ve graduated another class of new and enthusiastic docents this spring. Please welcome Pam Berreyesa, Amity Binkert, Gary Cornelsen, Jayne Hahin, Kirsten Hoyer, Weilin Pan and Suzanne Schleck. Our seven new docents started with a variety of backgrounds ranging from knowledge of Sierra wildflowers to knowledge of the plants of the Midwest or Europe rather than of California. In addition we had a Mid-Peninsula Regional Open Space docent, a trail patroller and dedicated jogger, a pediatric nurse, and a new mom. This group was so enthusiastic that they took Ken Himes up on his offer to show them the Brodiaea complex and Bush Mallow one evening a month or more after docent training ended! A great time was had by all despite our staying out until it was nearly too dark to see as we hastened down the Service Road to the parking lot. John Allen, Bob Buell, Toni Corelli, Paul Heiple, and Ken Himes taught our training classes again. A huge thank you is due them for the knowledge they impart and for the enthusiasm for Edgewood that they engender! |
