Celebrate the Heart of Nature with RivCoParks!

Riverside County Regional Park and Open-Space District posted a Facebook event (https://www.facebook.com/events/404287604008432/) that caught my attention. Being a new full time resident and employee of the water district I have been interested in learning as much as I can about our fabulous water and here is an excellent opportunity.
