In honor of National Public Lands Day, our Tinkergarten class wanted to share our gratitude to you and all of the people who make it possible for us to hold class in the Santa Ynez Botanic Garden in River View Park. We know that our park would not be here for us to learn and play in without a great deal of effort from all of you and all of the parks and recreation maintenance personnel. In our Tinkergarten classes, we teach children and their parents about sustainability and how important it is to care for and support our parks. The children in our class created a Thank You poster for you and your staff, decorated with paints the children made themselves from natural materials. Please accept the attached photo (with the only Tinkergarten Explorers we could wrangle to stand still!) with our sincerest thanks for all that you do.
We SO love our park!
All the best,
Katherine Naphy
Tinkergarten Leader, Santa Ynez Valley
