Signing in with the County Parks does not mean they are a FOSTP member.

list of members needs to match Edie Hansen's list. She has 81 names on
her list.

if we could do a presentation. Maureen and Mike will meet with the
librarian to discuss the plans. Ron can prepare posters and a
slideshow. We can ask Paul Bernal to show historic pictures.
- Ron talked about the fire in the park Witnesses said
it started from the top of the hill by the Vista Loop, and burned
quickly down the hill by the Bernal Hill Loop Trail. It was put out
quickly.
- There was a sexual assault on the Coyote-Alamitos Canal
near Snell, above Century Oaks Parks. The suspect has not been caught.
- We talked about the interpretive plaque on Coyote Peak. Ron
showed pictures of the plaque on Boccardo Hill. It shows a panoramic
view, with labeled lines pointing to landmarks. Sam showed a similar
design with a panorama from Coyote Peak. We said we should divide the
view into 3 views, from the east, north, and west, for each of the 3
benches on the peak. We'll have 3 signs eventually, but we should work
on the north sign first. At the top of the sign, it would have the
panoramic view with arrows. At the bottom, it would have zoomed-in
pictures of some of the points of interest.
