VIEW THE ONLY EXHIBIT SHOWING THE ACTUAL MOVEMENT ALONG
THE HAYWARD FAULT
Educational Grant from Alameda County
District 1, David Haubert
Visit
the only exhibit in the country that shows you the power of
Hayward Fault as it slowly moves. Over the last million years, the natural
beauty of Fremont has been shaped by the Hayward Fault.
The building will be open and Staff from the Math Science
Nucleus will be present to answer questions. This fault
is one of several active faults in the world
actually creeping at 5 mm/year. The exhibit is at the
Community Center in
Central Park (Lake Elizabeth) and explores dramatic faulting
effects in both natural and urban environments. View
the floor
of
a building that reveals dramatic evidence of this fault
activity. Then take a self guided walk through Central Park and
find fault features throughout the park. K-6 children can
look for features and return to select a prize.
The exhibit is at the Fremont Community
Center (back of the building facing Lake Elizabeth) (40204 Paseo
Padre Pkwy - cross street Mission View), located in the heart of
Central Park. You can walk to it from the Fremont BART
Station (about 1/3 mile).
