Did you know that California is one of the most biodiverse places in the world? Did you know that in Southern California alone there are at least three unique biomes? Did you know that we can take you to these biomes? Did you know that it's gonna be a lot of fun and also Tal and Daphne maybe want to be biology teachers? Did you know that if you sign up for this trip we're heading to the San Jacinto Mountains, the SoCal desert, and everywhere in between? Did you know that we're going to be car camping, star gazing, and day hiking (about 7 miles)? If you knew all these, hurrah. If you did not know these facts, now you do... so there's no reason for you not to sign up.
