Women of Sunbelt: Linda Gallo Hawley
Former classroom teacher and college adjunct professor of 28 years, Linda Gallo Hawley completed trail guide training at Mission Trails Regional Park in 2004, to learn and teach others about San Diego’s flora, fauna and Kumeyaay life before 1769. After 14 years as a volunteer trail guide and teacher of her “wildly popular” NATURE ADVENTURES! classes at MTRP, she now offers presentations in other San Diego parks, schools, libraries, and senior centers. Ms. Hawley has authored Nature Adventures!, a guidebook of nature facts, illustrations, her own songs, and information about the Kumeyaay people.
