The volksmarch sandwich board sign made by John Fletcher points the way into the mission and the CCPP's walk.   (WL)

Most of the route was along "back country" parts of the mission grounds.  (WL)


A couple stop for water at a rest point along the way. (WL)


A restored fountain was one of the last mission attractions before the finish.  (WL)

Larry Lee (R) waits for walkers at the start point.  On hand to explain the California Golden Heritage Program are former CVA President Pat Lucero (C) and her husband Dick (L).   (WL)

After passing the old cistern, the route circled a large grassy field.  (WL)


Not everyone at the mission that day was a walker.  Some were docents dressed in period costumes.  (WL)


If he man in the checkered shirt is taking money out of the donation jar, it better be our Secretary-Treasurer Bill Uttenweiler!  Watching from the start table are Dave Schuessler (in blue jacket) and Owen Holzborn (black sweatshirt). At the finish point, awaiting her stamps, is Sue Buel.  (WL)

If you have questions or wish to find out more about our club or about volkssports, please e-mail Bill Uttenweiler.
