The Shutdown Hasn’t Stop Volunteers from Providing Services In Sabino Canyon 2 comments
Sabino Canyon Recreational Area in the Coronado National Forest
has been impacted by the government shutdown
yet remains open to the public with the help of volunteer organizations,
Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists (SCVN)
and the Santa Catalina Volunteer Patrol (SCVP)
continuing to provide their services to the public.
One of the programs provided by the SCVN is daily
environmental education programs for k-6 students.
Each August teachers reserved a date to bring their class
to the Canyon starting in October.
Because of the shutdown, the Forest Service agreed
to make sure all trash is removed and the restrooms are clean
in the areas where the environmental education programs are taking place.
Teachers select from six programs designed to meet “core curriculum” goals.

This past Thursday’s program was “Back To the Past.”
Students learned about the nature Americans
who lived in Sabino Canyon hundreds of years ago.

Cold desert morning
Moving briskly on the trail
Dewdrops on dried weeds.

Floating Leaves
A light rain falls on leaves
Floating on the shallow water
Above the Sabino Creek dam
On a gray sky January day
Forgetfull of all except the silence.
