San Diego CA— Explore Mission Trails Day is an annual celebration at Mission Trails Regional Park on May 20, 2017. This year’s theme is Connecting with Nature with most activities occurring at the East Fortuna Staging Area at the west end of Mast Blvd. The free event is open to the public and connects people with nature through dozens of fun educational activities. There will be free guided nature walks and other activities such as live animal exhibits, crafts for kids, rock wall climbing and much more for the whole family.
