Nature for Kids: Deer Island

This is a Healthy Parks, Healthy People event. Spend the holiday taking a walk through oak forests and open meadows with the family. This beautiful little ridge that rises above the surrounding marshland is a great place to enjoy an autumn day. We request that no animals (except service animals) attend. Heavy rain may cancel. If questionable weather, call (415) 893-9527 after 7am on the morning of the event to hear a recorded message if cancelled. David Herlocker will lead. Questions: Contact David at (415) 893-9508 or DHerlocker@marincounty.org. Meet at the gate on Deer Island Ln in Novato. DIRECTIONS: From Hwy 101 in Novato, take exit 463 for Atherton Ave east 1.7 miles. Turn right onto Olive Ave and left onto Deer Island Ln. The gate is on your right.
