Skills-enhancing public beach safaris in Malibu…

The Los Angeles Urban Rangers announce

‘MALIBU PUBLIC BEACHES’ SAFARIS
August 4-5 & 11-12, 2007

“Tired of Zuma and Surfrider? Want to find and use the other beaches in Malibu? The twenty miles that are lined with private development? The ‘Malibu Public Beaches’ safaris will show you how to find, park, walk, picnic, and sunbathe on a Malibu beach. Each 3 1/2-hour safari visits two or three beaches and explores natural history, jurisdiction, and the identification of public and private property. Skills-enhancing activities include a public-private boundary hike, an accessway hunt, sign watching, and a public easement potluck.

“We will offer two safaris in west Malibu and two in east Malibu:

** West Malibu beaches – SAT Aug 4 (9:30am-1pm), SUN Aug 12 (1:30-5pm)
** East Malibu beaches – SUN Aug 5 (9:30am-1pm), SAT Aug 11 (1:30-5pm)

“Safaris are free, but space is limited. To sign up, please email info@laurbanrangers.org with tour date, name, and number of people. For further information on the safaris and the Los Angeles Urban Rangers, visit http://laurbanrangers.org/.

“A ‘Malibu Public Beaches’ guide will be downloadable from our website in
early August.

“The Los Angeles Urban Rangers is a collective of artists, writers, architects, and urban designers. We adopt the park ranger persona – friendly, knowledgeable, direct, and a tad gee-whiz- to explore the workings of our home megalopolis, and to give people the interpretive tools to do the same.”
