UC Santa Cruz Athletics and Recreation announced in November 2025 that it had received a $500,000 donation to revitalize the path and the renovation included releveling and resurfacing with a durable, all-weather material. The construction on the path, known for its sweeping views of Monterey Bay, was completed last week when it was reopened to UCSC students, faculty and staff as well as the general Santa Cruz County community. At the time of the announcement Chris Spells, UCSC director of Athletics and Recreation said in an interview with goslugs.com, “This beautiful half-mile path around Upper East Field is the heartbeat of our outdoor recreation spaces. This is the largest single gift in our department’s history, and it will make a tremendous difference. It allows us to revitalize a space that bolsters student well-being and student-athlete development. It’s a resource the campus relies on every day, and we couldn’t be more appreciative.” (Shmuel Thaler — Santa Cruz Sentinel)" title="STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.JPG" fetchpriority="high" src="https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.jpg" class=" size-hp_small" sizes="(max-width: 40em) 300px,(min-width: 40em) and (max-width: 50em) 380px,(min-width: 50em) and (max-width: 65em) 395px,(min-width: 65em) and (max-width: 80em) 470px,(min-width: 80em) 305px,470px" srcset="https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.jpg?w=269 300w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.jpg?w=309 380w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.jpg?w=319 395w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.jpg?w=381 470w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-TRACKPAGE-0924-03.jpg?w=247 305w" ></div>	</a>

The primary trail route in Arana Gulch provides a connection from Agnes Street to the upper harbor. Dirt hiking trails also encircle the meadow areas, from Hagemann Bridge to the harbor-side entrance and cycling is not allowed on the dirt trails. Visitors are asked to stay on the designated trails. The open space features valuable habitats, including wetlands, Central Coast riparian scrub, Central Coast live oak riparian forest, and coastal terrace prairie. Approximately one-third of Arana Gulch features wetlands.

2967		<div class="image-wrapper"><img alt="A cyclist pedals along the Coastal Rail Trail between Santa Cruz and Davenport as a field of Brussels sprouts is irrigated. According to the 2024 Santa Cruz County Crop Report, the county’s Brussels sprouts crop was cultivated on 448 acres and was worth $8,944,000 - down from $10,538,000 in 2023. The Brussels sprout is a member of the Gemmifera group of cabbages and has long been popular in Brussels, Belgium, from which it gained its name. Brussels sprouts are thought to have originated in Rome, but they really hit their stride in Belgium where they became popular as a vegetable crop in the 16th century. French settlers brought Brussels sprouts to Louisiana around 1800 and commercial production began there in 1925. In the 1940s Brussels sprout production moved to the Central Coast of California as part of the growing frozen food industry. The vegetable is especially rich in vitamin K, which is necessary for blood clotting, and is also high in vitamin C and fiber.

There is no official exact count of how many deer live in Santa Cruz County, though our region supports a stable population of Columbian black-tailed deer. The Ohlone people, who lived in the region for thousands of years before European colonization, used deer for food, clothing and tools, ensuring that every part of the animal was respected and used without waste. Deer meat was an important year-round source of protein; the skins were used to make clothing. Bones and antlers were crafted into practical items like awls, antler wedges, and scapular saws and the hooves were used to create rattles for traditional ceremonies and dances.

4007		<div class="image-wrapper"><img alt="Members of the local Jewish community gather at Natural Bridges State Beach on Sunday for the Tashlich ritual organized by Temple Beth El and led by Rabbi Shifra Weiss-Penzias. In Hebrew “Tashlich” means to “cast” and the ceremony is held on Rosh HaShanah (the Jewish New Year) beside a flowing body of water where participants symbolically cast away sins using crumbs, seeds, peas or pebbles into the water. Tashlich opens the door for Jews to live better lives in the coming year. The custom developed around the 13th century and became widespread despite objections from rabbis who feared superstitious people would believe that the casting off rather than actual repentance had the power to change their lives. In Judaism, the Ten Days of Awe, also called the High Holidays, began Friday at sunset with Rosh HaShanah and end at sundown on Sept. 21 with Yom Kippur. Traditionally it is a time many Jews take to meditate on the themes and intentions of the holidays and ask for forgiveness from anyone they have wronged.

A large crowd filled Main Street between West Beach and Second streets for the annual Mexican Independence Day celebration. The free family-friendly event included music, dancing, food and children&#039;s activities. Speakers included Consul General de México en San José Neftali Said Pérez González, County Schools Superintendent Faris Sabbah and organizer Oscar Rios. Performers included Los Fugitivos, Los Nuevos Miravalle, Banda Fuerza Armada, Esperanza del Valle and Mariachi Nuevo Jalisco. The cultural and educational mission of Kalpulli Ehecacoatl is to preserve pre-Columbian and Mexica dance in Watsonville and to keep ancestral roots alive. Mexican Indepence Day commemorates when Catholic priest Miguel Hidalgo in 1810 made the cry for independence hours after midnight by giving a riveting speech in the town of Dolores and ringing the town&#039;s church bells. The moment, which became known as the Grito de Dolores, was the start of the 11-year Mexican War of Independence that resulted in Mexico gaining freedom from Spain after being under colonial rule for more than 300 years.

4722		<div class="image-wrapper"><img alt="On Sept. 9, 1919, members of the Lenox family watched a South Pacific Coast Railroad train make its way down San Lorenzo Valley. Today, Highway 9 between Santa Cruz and Felton follows the old train route, originally built by the Santa Cruz &amp; Felton Railroad. This popular pullout and viewing spot, located 2.5 miles south of Felton, is called Inspiration Point. After Eben Bennett established his toll road up S
4722an Lorenzo Valley in 1867, many thousands have enjoyed and taken photographs of this sweeping panoramic view of the gorge. In March 1905, the Southern Pacific Railroad built the current concrete arch bridge and today you can still find many versions of postcard views taken from this very spot. Though over the past 100 years, tall second-growth redwoods have grown to block much of the vista, Inspiration Point is still worth a stop.

The stress and excitement of the first day of a school term has been a common annual experience in our county for over 160 years. Early local schooling, in the mid-1800s, was private and community-based, often associated with particular churches or individuals. Public schools began to be established in the 1850s and 1860s, with some of the earliest county schools with dedicated buildings including Mission Hill, Roache, Pajaro, Watsonville Primary, San Andreas and Carrolton schools. By 1875 there were 54 established public schools in the county. The county’s earliest high school began on a dedicated floor in a Santa Cruz school building, with Watsonville High being the first dedicated high school building, in 1894. Countywide enrollment in educational institutions began with handfuls of students in the mid-1800s, soon increasing to hundreds by the 1870s, to a current rough estimate of over 74,000 students enrolled in all county school districts, private schools, UC Santa Cruz and Cabrillo College.

6873		<div class="image-wrapper"><img alt="A prismatic halo surrounds the midday sun above downtown Santa Cruz. According to the National Weather Service website, Earth&#039;s atmosphere sometimes produces &quot;colorful displays when conditions are right.&quot; Among these optical effects are halos, sun pillars and sundogs. The NWS website explains, &quot;A halo is a ring or light that forms around the sun or moon as the sun or moon light refracts off ice crystals present in a thin veil of cirrus clouds. Sundogs are colored spots of light that develop due to the refraction of light through ice crystals. They are located approximately 22 degrees either left, right, or both, from the sun, depending on where the ice crystals are present. Sun Pillars appear as a shaft of light extending vertically above the sun, most often at sunrise or sundown. They develop as a result of ice crystals slowly falling through the air, reflecting the sun’s rays off of them.&quot; (Shmuel Thaler — Santa Cruz Sentinel)" title="STC-L-SUNHALO-0906-01.jpg" src="data:image/webp;base64,UklGRiQAAABXRUJQVlA4IBgAAAAwAQCdASoBAAEAAwA0JaQAA3AA/v3AgAA=" class="lazyload  size-hp_small" data-sizes="auto" data-src="https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-SUNHALO-0906.jpg?w=140" data-srcset="https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-SUNHALO-0906.jpg?w=140 300w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-SUNHALO-0906.jpg?w=161 380w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-SUNHALO-0906.jpg?w=167 395w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-SUNHALO-0906.jpg?w=199 470w,https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/STC-L-SUNHALO-0906.jpg?w=129 305w" ></div>	</a>

The 257,000 square-foot, 624-bed development will span three buildings, with 60% of the beds designated for Cabrillo College students and 40% for UC Santa Cruz students.

The project developer is Greystar, the general contractor is Devcon Construction, the public private partner is Collegiate Housing Foundation, and WRNS Studio is the project architect. By state statute, rents for all units will be affordable.
