Discovery Center thanks the community Organizers want to say thank you to the Red Bluff Community for all the sup- port it has provided to the Sacramento River Discov- ery Center's Summer Camps program. Groups like Exchange Club of Red Bluff, Tehama County Depart- ment of Education, Tehama County Library, Tehama County Depart- ment of Education Library have assisted by providing financial and/or moral support for this year‚s series of six weeks of day camps for youth six to 12 years of age. The last two names are groups that the SRDC has partnered with to support the Tehama Learn and Reads program. The SRDC thanks Rolling Hills Casino, P,G&E Foundation, All- state Foundation for provid- ing financial support by sponsoring one week of the camps program. Organizers wish that each of the sponsors could spend a day with the campers and see the excite- ment that Zach Whitten brings to learning both from reading and from hands on experiences inside and in the out of doors. Watching a water bucket brigade create the SRDC water project along the Sacramento River as a way of learning about water storage, floods, levies and get a feel about what the Department of Water Resources has to deal with on a larger scale is a learn- ing experience for the observer. The awe of a child see- ing a turkey vulture or a great horned owl up close or watching the "web of life" as George and Al, the resident snakes, consume a small mouse for their week- ly meal is learning for both the young and the not so young.
