YSI and Visitor Center in Alum Rock Park, 5/14/22 by Ronald Horii
On 5/14/22, there was a special event at Alum Rock Park. It was celebrating its 150th anniversary. As part of the celebration, the Youth Science Institute (YSI) and the visitor center were open. Here are pictures of them. (Note that the indoor shots were taken by my new Panasonic ZS100 camera. I was testing its low-light capabilities.)
