| | | | | | Under stormy skies, scores of supporters of the Acalanes Ridge Open Space made the muddy uphill trek for the official dedication ceremony on Saturday. The City of Lafayette, Walnut Creek, the East Bay Regional Park District and the Muir Heritage Land Trust collaborated to purchase the prominent twenty-three acre parcel behind Acalanes High School. Organizers of the celebration called it a "treasured oasis" in the community; the property features spectacular views from the Carquinez Straits to Mt. Diablo. C. Tyson
