Dr. Lyons will present a walking-talking tour that highlights aspects of the “three histories”: American Indian, European settler and natural history.
Meet in front of the Ranch House at 7:45 a.m. for time to experience the early morning wildlife to be found in the Ranch House and Barn complex yard. The walk begins at 8 a.m.
Park docents Gae Henry and Henry Bornstein will lead a tour of the historic Ranch House immediately after the walk.
The Anderson Marsh Interpretive Association (AMIA) holds a monthly guided nature walk, followed by a Ranch House tour.
This summer, walks will be held on two upcoming Saturday mornings: July 9 and Aug. 13.

Several three person teams have signed up for the calf dressing event and if enough teams sign up to compete, the second round will be held on Saturday, July 9, between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m.
It appears some of the volunteer firemen/women in Lake County are competing against each other to see whose team can beat the clock. Rumor has it that some law enforcement personnel are also in the
running.
There is still time to sign up for this event, so get your team together and contact Debbie and Johnny Jones at 707-279-8316.
The entry fee is $30/person or $90/team. All teams must check in at the Lake County Rodeo Office no later than 5:30 p.m. each night, just inside the arena gate, next to the grandstands
Also during the first hour will be the Diablo Ladies Drill Team performance and the Mutton Bustin' competition for ages up to 8 years.
Friday evening they will have the crowning of the 2011 Rodeo Queen and Princess and introduce
the winners of the Cutest Cowpoke Contest.
