Desert Survivors Earth Day Fair & Party!
Join your fellow Desert Survivors at our 2008 Earth Day Party! We’ll enjoy plenty of good cheer and conversation. Meet your fellow members, talk about trips and experiences, find out about new destinations, meet new hiking buddies. We’ll also have the latest information on desert issues we’re concerned about. We’ll have slideshows and laptop presentations illustrating desert trips, so bring your slides or your laptop, plus photos, etc.
If you’re in the Bay Area and are out on a Spring wildflower hike, stop by afterward at our Earth Day Party in Berkeley. This party ends our Spring hiking season and begins our Summer in the high desert. Our new Summer Trip Schedule will be ready, introducing desert trips to come. Join us for a good show.

Note: This year’s Earth Day Party will follow the local Earth Day Fair in Berkeley on Saturday morning and afternoon. We’re looking for volunteers at the fair --- to staff our table, talk to visitors about trips and issues, and explain the desert’s unique beauty to the uninformed. It’s a great way to teach about the desert. If you want to help, call Steve Tabor at (510) 769-1706. The fair runs all day, 11 am to 5 pm.

HELP DESERT SURVIVORS at the EARTH DAY FAIR in BERKELEY!!
SATURDAY APRIL 19, 2008
Once again this year Desert Survivors will be staffing a table at the Berkeley Earth Day Fair in the Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park on MLK Way. We’ll be meeting the public, talking to folks who are interested in the desert and in desert hiking. It’s a great way to meet new people, generate new members, and show your love and enthusiasm for the desert. You may help for all or part of the day.
Look for the DS table with our displays and banner. We’ll have Seymour the Snake there, too — just in case we have enough members to take him around the park to thrill the kids and scare the adults. Wear your Desert Survivors hat and tee-shirt to “show your colors”. We’ll go to the Earth Day Party in Berkeley when we’re through.
WHEN: Saturday, April 19, 2008
WHERE: Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park on MLK Way, Berkeley
If you can come, please call Steve Tabor at (510) 769-1706.
Thank you, and see you on Earth Day!
