Washoe County Regional Parks and Open Space is offering their second Story Stroll this weekend.
They hope events like these will promote reading, engage elementary students, highlight our local parks, and engage our community.
However, this Story Stroll is a bit different because the students will be writing the story.
The Roy Gomm Elementary School fourth grade class led by Jason Ventetuolo, has worked together to write an original story that will be featured in the Fall Story Stroll, which will be along the .7 mile loop Nature Trail, at Davis Creek Regional Park.
Local artist Sarah Grant created all of the illustrations for the book about how animals get ready for winter. Pages will be mounted along the trail for participants to read as they stroll around the pond. Ranger-led strolls will begin September 22 and every Saturday until October 6, led by Park Ranger Nick Steuer. The stroll will conclude with an interactive activity given by Library representatives.
Washoe County contributed to this story.
