Graduates held a docent-guided tour and brown bag lunch at the 782-acre Arroyo Hondo Preserve
 located in a pristine canyon just north of Santa Barbara on the beaurtiful Gaviota coast.
The Preserve was purchased in October 2001 by the Land Trust for Santa Barbara
and has been made available to the public on a reservation basis.

Ron and Ellie Freese organized the event.

Our morning tour began at the Ortega family’s 1842 adobe ranch house and included
hiking along the meandering trails followed by lunch at a shaded picnic grove.

Arroyo Hondo is located off #101 just south of the Gaviota Pass.
ADVICE: Bring your own brown bag lunch, water, insect repellent, good walking shoes.
