Hands-on learning in the outdoors not only brings science alive, it teaches children self-confidence, leadership skills, collaboration, respect for the land and responsible use of our natural resources. Plus, kids get a chance to “unplug” and have fun being active outside!” SFI has provided natural history education for all ages for over 18 years. In anticipation of the new program, SFI will be ramping up capacity to serve more students in a residential camp setting. Plans include building bunkhouses that can be used year round and adding a camp kitchen.

Your friend, Perlita Christmas! Your friend, Ethan the way it is,” he said. “We’re still out patrolling on the streets of Cave Junction each night - and this puts more pressure on our smaller number of volunteers. So if anyone is interested in protecting their town, we’d like to hear from them.” To get involved, call 541-592- 9665. Lehman also wants to hear from the public when they spot “bad activity, dumped cars and garbage. If neighbors identify dangerous or unlawful activity they should report the incidents to law enforcement right away.” Lehman added that people should utilize the Cave Junction sub- station to help track criminal activity and to be sure to leave a message if calling outside normal operational hours. “It can take the sheriff’s office awhile, but our sub-station volunteers are great about calling people back. They’ll help people complete police reports and connect with law enforcement officers.” Call the sub-station at 541-592-5151. SI GILL . . . Continued from A-5 Old Stage Park formerly referred to as ‘River View Park’ was conveyed to the city by Josephine County in 1980 with a few restrictions: one being that if the 40 acres ever ceases to be a public park, title to the land would automatically revert back to JoCo. The park’s current name references back to its historical use as a river crossing for wagon and stage coach traffic on one of the first roads constructed in Southern Oregon that went through to Crescent City. It was utilized for hauling supplies to gold mining camps and served as a primary life line region-wide, until the Oregon and California Railroad was constructed in 1884. The road remained in use until 1922 when Highway 199 was constructed. “Old Stage Park has great potential for future recreational development, including walking trails, a small RV camp, river access, etc. However within the current funding system for parks and recreation in Cave Junction, funding for improvement costs and maintenance have not been feasible,” Nolan said. “Old Stage Park was never developed, but in the past it was a great spot for locals to access the river. It has definitely been a problem area for several decades now, with people dumping garbage and camping illegally. ...There have been a number of times that law enforcement and city workers have cleared the area of camping and garbage and the city will likely be looking to do some brush clearing to reduce the fire danger and the ability to camp there without being seen.” Evans wants neighborhood residents to stay vigilant and hopes more people will join CJ Patrol. “Volunteerism is at an all time low.
