Field Trip Notes

Please note that in our annual planning of field trips, we scheduled a two day Los Banos trip for the President's Birthday weekend, February 18th and 19th, 2012. This trip is cancelled as the scheduled leaders have found they will not be available for those dates after all. If anyone would like to lead a trip for either or both days, please contact me and we'll make arrangements.

Also, please remember, as we head into our winter wet weather, our trips may sometimes need to be cancelled due to weather issues. If weather is questionable for any of our trip dates, please contact the leader or myself, to verify that the trip will go on as scheduled.
