Join volunteers on SAT Jan 16 at the Fern Glade in Garber Park.
Stewards of Garber Park plan to walk the Loop Trail and identify many native ferns along the way. They will gather at the Fern Glade and work together to remove any invasive species. The morning workshop will be held 9:30-12:30 with a speaker from Golden Hour Restoration Institute. Wear sturdy shoes and be prepared for changing weather. Refreshments will be served. Questions or RSVP to our dedicated neighbor

Our long-time neighbors, Nancy & Phil Polakoff, hosted a small group of friends at a fundraiser for the Scott Hamilton Cares Foundation https://scottcares.org/ Hamilton is himself a cancer survivor. The Olympic Gold Medalist hosted skaters, both professional and amateur, plus guests of his foundation, on a hotel rooftop ice rink in Las Vegas. We were delighted to be among the supporters! Hot cocoa and s’mores were served around the fire pits.
