To fellow MBPAPA Members, This is a compilation of favorite paint-out sites from the survey taken at the December Annual Meeting. This first edition is a starting point. Several suggestions have already been made for a second edition. They include: 1.) A map showing our total region. 2.) More sites from the northern portion of our region. Capitola Village Search: Capitola Beach, CA 2 3.) Additional helpful information about sites, ie. restroom facilities. 10 Please help make the second edition better by sending me your comments and suggestions (Especially regarding points 2 and 3 above). 9 Thank you, Steve Maher 5 3 4 email: SteveMaherFineArt@gmail.com 7 6 8 Overview Map Source: Page 1
