Join us for a fun morning of history and exploration at Helen Putnam as we begin to unravel what the landscape looked like prior to becoming a park. Investigate the park’s cultural history during a scavenger hunt that will reveal what the landscape looked like prior to Spanish/Mexican settlements. Come out for a leisurely stroll and learn about the Spanish settlement, mixing of cultures and Sonoma County’s long-standing ranching roots. Registration is required for this free event. For more information, contact Kristina Stanton at [email protected].

Most programs will happen rain or shine, but will be cancelled during heavy rains, heavy smoke, or extreme temperatures. Kayaking programs are weather and wind dependent.
