Come one, come all to the 75th anniversary celebration of Cuyamaca Rancho State park to be held at Cuyamaca Outdoor School, 12561 Highway 79, Descanso, Ca, 91916. Starts around 10am and goes until 4pm.
DW and I will be volunteering there by helping with parking. Hopefully one of our intrepid photo friends can make it up there to take a few pics?
There are going to be lots of activities and events and there will be booths from each of the volunteer groups to present what we do and hope we get a few more volunteers to help take care of our wonderful state park.
Hope to see you there.
Thanks.
