• Kids 7-12, join the Junior Rangers Club! This fun, free program continues today, 10 a.m. at the Frazier Park library (and is each Friday 10-11 a.m. through the summer). The focus is on responsible recreation, outdoor safety, wildlife and environmental awareness.
Saturday, July 6, 2019
• Find some treasures while supporting FMHS sports at their annual rummage sale, 7 a.m.–5 p.m. in the parking lot next to Falcon’s Nest (3216 Mt. Pinos Way, Frazier Park). This will benefit the baseball, cross country and cheer teams.
• Stop by the California Condor Viewing Booth, 10 a.m.–3 p.m., to ‘take a break from driving, enjoy the view, get caught up on the wild condor population, and maybe even see a free-flying condor or two or a dozen.’ It is on Hudson Ranch Road between Pine Mountain Club and Highway 33—about 3.5 miles past Valle Vista Campground at the “Bitter Creek National Wildlife Refuge” sign. Look for the shade canopy. They’ll be there every first and third Saturday through September.
• The Summer Music Festival continues at Frazier Park Library at 11 a.m. with free ice cream on the porch and music by PMC’s Celtic Jam Collective. Get your reel and your waltz on! See story on pg. 10. And remember, kids, read ten books this summer to get a free book to keep!

• Embrace the dark on a Night Hike 8:15–10:15 p.m. at Wind Wolves Preserve. The dark of the new moon is ideal for star gazing. Naturalists will tell of nocturnal animals and lead sensory awareness activities. Black lights may be provided to discover glow-in-the-dark critters. Ages 6 and up (no strollers). These are free, but book up fast! Reservations are at via www.facebook.com/WindWolvesPreserve.
