August’s interpretive event at Loch Lomond Recreation Area will feature historian Lisa Robinson and archaeologist Mark Hylkema who will discuss the rich cultural history of the San Lorenzo Valley and the effects of this history on the watersheds that provide the City of Santa Cruz water supply.
Attendance is limited to 25 people and is offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Loch Lomond Recreation Area is a 180-acre reservoir and part of the 2,800-acre watershed land holdings that the City of Santa Cruz Water Department manages in the Newell Creek watershed. It is open daily from late March through mid-October when the park closes for the season.
