CALABASAS, CA — Calabasas rocks! After Thursday night, that statement is both a true statement and a plural noun. Families from the Viewpoint School are painting rocks to thank frontline workers that will be displayed at a Pop Up Rock Garden in De Anza Park until March 30. At a Thursday night Makersfest event - an annual event in which Viewpoint families work together on different projects - hundreds of Viewpoint students and staff logged onto Zoom to paint their thanks. Once they're done, they will display them under a giant rock saying "Frontline Essential Workers Rock!" near the trail adjacent to the picnic shelter in De Anza Park. The wider community is encouraged to contribute their own rocks, although supplies will not be provided. "Frontline workers have been heroes throughout the pandemic and the City of Calabasas, along with the Viewpoint School, is extremely proud to honor them in our community," said Calabasas Mayor James Bozajian. "Our school is thrilled to partner with the City of Calabasas to designate de Anza Park as a place for families to safely place their painted rocks and honor a healthcare and frontline worker with love, hope, gratitude, and Valentine's spirit," the Viewpoint Makersfest team said in a statement.
