Botanical garden trip is May 23
GRF BUS TRIP
The Recreation Department is offering a GRF spring bus trip to see the SOAR Butterfly Exhibit at the South Coast Botanic Garden on Thursday, May 23, at 10 a.m. Tickets are $45 per person, which includes the special exhibit, self-guided tour of the gardens and bus transportation.
“The exhibit features immersion into hundreds of tropical butterflies that you wouldn’t normally see in Southern California,” according to the garden’s website. “Next, you’ll stop by our Emergence Chamber where you may just see a butterfly emerge from its pupa! Next, you’ll enter the pavilion where you will have an up-close-and-personal experience with the hundreds of butterflies flying throughout the exhibit. While the pavilion provides many photo-worthy moments, there will be additional photo opportunities outside of the pavilion as part of SOAR.”
People can purchase tickets the Recreation Office, located in Building 5, lower level, via cash, check or debit/credit card. The bus will leave from the Amphitheater parking lot at 9 a.m. Tour goers are welcome to bring a lunch with them to enjoy in the picnic grounds. Tickets are non-refundable. Participants will need to complete a release form. For more information, contact the Recreation Department at 431-6586 ext. 2707 or email Recreation.Department@lwsb.com.
