Village hosts family-friendly party on March 15.
Inner Wheel is hosting a champagne brunch fundraiser Sunday, Feb. 23, at the Saratoga Country Club to support the Myoelectric Limb Project. The project provides children with advanced myoelectric prosthetics, allowing them to control artificial limbs using their muscle signals. Saratogan and Inner Wheel member Janice LeFevre says, “This is an amazing program that gives mobility and independence. There is still time to buy raffle tickets for gift baskets.” Contact LeFevre at janicealefevre@gmail.com.
The Village Gardeners will celebrate their 20th anniversary Tuesday, March 4, at 11 :30 a.m. at Florentine’s in the Village. The volunteer band of gardeners has donated time and energy to keep the Village looking great. Notice the daffodils springing up. Gardener Jill Hunter invites the public to attend, and sends “special thanks to the City of Saratoga staff and John Cherbone, who has been instrumental in the success of the project, and to real estate agents Gail Evjenth and Bev Harada, who have donated to the gardeners for the last 10 years.” www.florentinetrattoria.com

Many have seen it, but not all have visited the concrete box on Mt. Umunhum, the iconic radar tower that was once a key part of the West Coast’s missile defense system After years as the Almaden Air Force Station, the site was added to the Midpeninsula Open Space District and opened to public access in 2017. You can hike or drive to the summit, one of the highest peaks in the Santa Cruz Mountains, to experience 360-degree views and learn a little about the site’s native American and military history. www.openspace.org/preserves/sierra-azul
