Ellwood Mesa’s 20th Anniversary Celebration!
Saturday May 17, 2025 | 11 AM - 4 PM
Sperling Preserve, Ellwood Mesa
Twenty years ago, our community came together to save Ellwood Mesa, preserving its breathtaking open space for future generations. Thanks to your passion and dedication, it remains a sanctuary for monarch butterflies, native wildlife, and all who love to explore the trails, breathe in the ocean air, and soak in its natural beauty.
Now, it’s time to celebrate! Join us on May 17, 2025, for a free, family-friendly community gathering filled with fun, nature, and connection. Whether you helped protect Ellwood years ago or are just discovering its magic, this event is for you!
Come be part of this special day as we honor the past and inspire the future of Ellwood Mesa!
