1:08 PM, May 15th update: Following repairs, the gift store has reopened.
Last week, volunteers working at the Eaton Canyon Nature Center had a rude awakening when they discovered water pooling on the gift shop’s floor. A water leak in the walls of the nature center had soaked through onto the carpet and was threatening to damage merchandise. Quick acting by both county staff and official volunteers prevented any merchandise from being damaged. However, the gift shop will remain closed for the time being until repairs are made.
Earlier this year, the gift shop got an upgrade with a brand new countertop, new merchandise, and an improved set-up. The new countertop has not been damaged by the water leak.
