Working with Oracle State Park to conserve nature, preserve legacy, educate and engage
FOSP Members Event was Eggstraordinary!
On April 13th, Friends members were treated to a light breakfast complete with bagels, quiche, fresh fruit, bakery, coffee and tea followed by a Guided Geology Tour led by Tom Buckley, trail designer and park geologist. Recently FOSP members contributed $4000 in dues and donations that paid for markers for the self-guided tour and backpacks with accessories for the Geology Trail, a volunteer recognition lunch, furniture and decorations for the Ranch House, and stipends for musicians at star parties.
Thank you FOSP Members!
The Annual January 1st Hike With Sinda was a Great Way to Start the Year!
