Modoc Preserve is Turning 15! – Apr. 12

We are celebrating the 15th anniversary of the Modoc Preserve! This beautiful 25 acres was protected in 1999 when the La Cumbre Water Company granted a conservation easement to the Land Trust to keep this land open and undeveloped for community benefit. The network of pedestrian and equestrian trails and the small natural wetland make this a neighborhood gem. Its location adjacent to a section of the 5 mile Obern Trail also makes it a highly valued resource.

What: a FREE, family-friendly community celebration
Where: Modoc Preserve, near the bike path as it leaves Modoc Road at the west end of the Preserve.
When: April 12, 11:00 am- 2:00 pm
Why: Modoc Preserve is turning 15!
