Encore Intergenerational Service Event for Saturday, January 27: 10am to 2pm, Palo Alto Baylands Nature Preserve

Many of us totally enjoyed the August 25th event we held with our resident birders Krissy and Alec. They assure us that the winter birds are different and just as fascinating. So we are planning an encore event for January 27. Thanks to the commitment of Joyce, we will be able again to cap the event off with providing some service to benefit the Environmental Volunteers.

Here is the basic info:

Please bring sack lunches and any binoculars that you have.

We will meet at the picnic tables behind the Palo Alto Duck Pond at 10am on Saturday, January 27. The address is 2550 Embarcadero Road Palo Alto. We will have staked out some tables earlier that day, and when you arrive we can leave our sack lunches there.

From 10 to about noon, we will enjoy a walk and bird viewing with FLC’s own birders Krissy and Alec. followed by our lunch together.

At around 12:30, we will visit the Eco Center and we will stay to work on a service project for the Environmental Volunteers.

2:00 pm -we will clean up and depart.

Please join us! Folks of all ages! Bring your friends! It will be a fun morning where we can get to know each other, learn together and contribute our efforts.

Intergenerational Service Event on Saturday August 5th; 10a.m.-2 p.m.

We will continue our series of intergenerational service events with a special focus on caring for BIRDS–a very important part of God’s creation.

We invite people of all ages to join us at the Palo Alto Baylands Nature Preserve for educational activities, birding, and a service project with the EcoCenter there. This event is being planned by Krissy Arnst (our FLC Birder!), Joyce Rice (a dedicated Environmental Volunteer) and Carol Larson.

At around 12:30, we will visit the Eco Center and its exhibits which will be open to the public.
At 1, the Eco Center will close but we will stay to work on a service project for the Environmental Volunteers. Most likely this will be filling packets with wildflower seeds that will later be given to participants in community programs and other initiatives that focus on pollinators, drought tolerant, native plants.

2:00 pm -we will clean up and depart.
