SUMMARY:The Making Of A Park: How And Why Anza-Borrego Desert State Park Was Formed
DESCRIPTION:Date: Thursday, October 10, 2024 \nTime: 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. \nLocation: Online via Zoom – Instructions to access the webinar will be available upon registration. \nCost: \nABF Member: $7/person \nNon-member: $10/person \nStudent: $5/person \nDescription: \nJoin the California Naturalist and Anza-Borrego: in Focus programs for the season’s kickoff webinar, “The Making of a Park: How and Why Anza-Borrego Desert State Park Was Formed”. This foundational webinar will be presented by Diana Lindsay, former ABF president and award-winning author and photographer. Diana has been exploring the Park for 50 years and is incredibly knowledgeable about the area’s flora, fauna, geology, and history. She will discuss the key features of the park and its unique physical setting, as well as tell the story of how visionaries came together to create Anza-Borrego Desert State Park in the face of many challenges, many of which persist today. This event is a great opportunity to learn more about the park and the surrounding desert region and also serves as a foundation of knowledge for the California Naturalist in the Desert course. The online lecture will be followed by an opportunity for Q & A. \nRegistration: \nhttps://host.nxt.blackbaud.com/registration-form/?formId=f8ba64ea-d40c-4651-9e54-74f6e571ce1c&envId=p-Of6JnJ-NDU-Ys4lsF7CG9w&zone=usa \nAfter registering, the confirmation page will provide you with a Zoom link to access the webinar. A reminder email will also be sent out the week of the event. \nAbout the Presenter: \nDiana Lindsay is the author, co-author, or editor of over a dozen award-winning books. Her master’s thesis from San Diego State University on the history of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park was published as Our Historic Desert by Copley Books in 1973. A few years later, she co-authored The Anza-Borrego Desert Region, a guidebook to the area published by Wilderness Press in 1978. It’s now in its 6th edition and remains the key resource for this desert area. Diana was the lead editor for Coast to Cactus: The Canyoneer Trail Guide to San Diego Outdoors, which was originally published in 2016 and is updated with every printing. Diana served as a trustee for the San Diego Natural History Museum and is a Canyoneer – a museum trained volunteer who leads public walks throughout San Diego County.  \nDiana is passionate about outdoor recreation and the conservation of our local habitats and environment. She believes in educating the public, who will become the best proponents of conservation once they understand the value of San Diego’s outdoors. Diana was presented with the Medallion Award from the State of California for her 30 years of volunteer work on behalf of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park and was named a Lifetime Member of the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park Botany Society based on her vision and leadership skills and creation of excellence in education. She is also an honorary State Park Ranger. \nCancellation Policy: \nCancellation requests must be received 7 days before the event if you wish to receive a refund. Refunds cannot be issued for cancellations made after the 7-day deadline. If ABF cancels a program, we will issue a full refund or credit. \n
