A half-century ago, two groups of parents—one in Inverness, the other in Point Reyes Station—brainstormed over their respective kitchen tables about what to do with their toddlers. The parents needed to work each day, and their children needed companionship and stimulation, but there weren’t any preschools in town. So they created their own, never suspecting that the two would become one, uniting to become a celebrated Point Reyes Station institution, the Papermill Creek Children’s Corner.
