Kern Sierra Unit

Submitted by:  by Steve Cozzetto
On the weekend of March 28^th & 29^th, 2015 the Kern Sierra Unit of the BCHC participated in the Spring Nature Festival held at the Wind Wolves Preserve.

The unit had a booth that distributed BCHC literature and answered the public’s questions regarding our purpose.
Nearby, we conducted packing demonstrations and if the timing was right the public got to witness a mule and wagon being driven.

The packing demonstrations were a big hit there and were among the most attended events. The demonstrations were supposed to occur a couple of times per day but due to the sheer number of attendees and the interest, people kept lingering and it seemed that the days were one non-stop demonstration.

Our president Scott Rogers really outdid himself in making the event a success and deserve special thanks. Scott supplied the well behaved stock, the wagon and the packing gear. In addition he made almost daily trips to the preserve in the week prior to the event to make sure all of equipment would be there and dial in all of the logistics.

I would like to thank Dan & Sara York of the Wind Wolves Preserve for accommodating us. In addition I would like to thank all of the other volunteers that contributed to its success: Robert Anderson, Patty Montoya, Fred & Sylvia Chavez, Tammy Bozarth, Lynn Joiner, Vince Zaninovich.
