— from the San Juan County Land Bank —
In celebration of its 25th Anniversary, as well as National Poetry Month, The Land Bank, with help from its partners, SJI Library, SJI National Historical Park, SJI Trails Committee, Lime Kiln Point State Park, and Friends of Lime Kiln Society (F.O.L.K.S.), will display nature poems submitted and selected by Islanders along trails winding through some of San Juan Island’s most inspiring natural settings – Limekiln and Deadman Bay Preserves, Lime Kiln Point State Park, and American Camp.
The Poetry Trails are yours to explore during regular Park and Preserve hours throughout the month of April. Included in the month long celebration are two Saturday guided poetry walks:
- April 11th at 1 pm. Poetry Walk Guided by Poet Paul Nelson and SJI National Historical Park Historian Mike Vouri. Meet and park at American Camp Visitor Center lot. No dogs please.
- April 25th at 1 pm. KNOW YOUR ISLAND WALK and Anniversary Celebration: A Guided Walk with Poets Sally and Sam Green and Land Bank Director Lincoln Bormann. Meet and park at Lime Kiln State Park main lot. No dogs please.
