Transformation Below Santa Teresa Spring, 7/31/15 to 12/11/21 by Ronald Horii
On 12/11/21, there was a dedication ceremony for the new trail in Santa Teresa County Park: https://tinyurl.com/ycx6a74n. It starts below Santa Teresa Spring, which is an ever-flowing spring and the most historically significant site in the park and one of the most important sites in the county. Over the years, and particularly in the last 2 years, Park Maintenance has been doing a lot of work cleaning up and transforming the area around the spring into a lovely picnic area. Here are pictures taken over the years, showing how it's changed.
