Join Friends of Camano Island Parks members on a guided community walk Saturday at Four Springs Lake Preserve.
Meet at 9:50 a.m. in the Four Springs parking lot at 585 Lewis Lane on Camano Island.
See the preserve with a walk on the perimeter trail, including the wetlands trail. The perimeter trail includes two fairly steep 50-foot hills. The distance of the walk is approximately two miles. A shorter, more level, option is available.
A tour of the Four Springs House, Meadow Room and barn is also available. The approximately two-hour hike takes place rain or shine. Wear appropriate clothes and sturdy shoes or boots.
