		The Patagonia Lake State Park hopes to open expanded hiking and birding areas, and VOAz is helping with trail construction.
		We camped at the developed sites at the park, pretty high end, and not a wilderness adventure by any means-bathrooms, showers, fire pits, etc. It is a good facility for a developed site, and it was wonderful to have hot showers after digging and grubbing in the dirt.
		The Park provided a guided tour of the lake Saturday evening with a biology and history lesson of the area--a great way to unwind a bit after the day shoveling, lifting and hauling.
