Stories from the Early Days at Lake Merritt

The story of Lake Merritt is a story of people connecting to nature in the heart of a big city. The city established the first municipal naturalist program in the country (at the first waterfowl refuge in the country) to nurture that connection to nature. We’ll dig into this story, and talk about the people that were involved, including Paul Covel, the City’s first naturalist.

Program including 30 minute talk followed by questions and answers, a trivia game with prizes and discussion.
