Wednesday, December 7
Social 6:45 pm, Presentation 7:15 pm
Quinlan Center, 10185 North Stelling Road, Cupertino

The December meeting will start with a half hour social time to honor our retiring Executive Director, Mondy Lariz, whose vision and hard work through the years have made SPCWC possible. At 7:15, Zara McDonald, founder and Executive Director of Felidae Conservation Fund, will give an inspiring presentation about Bay Area mountain lions and the work currently underway to study and protect them. These beautiful and graceful animals play a critical role in maintaining the health and biodiversity of our local ecosystems, but are threatened as expanding human populations increase encounters and conflicts.

 The SPCWC mission is to engage the community in wise stewardship of our watershed, furthering the protection, restoration, and community appreciation of creeks and associated habitats. This will be accomplished through collaboration and consensus in a manner that is sensitive to the needs of the entire community.
