As the holidays get close, and the air cools off a bit (yep, I’ve already dug out my flannel-lined jeans!) don’t forget our California State Parks. CalParks Park Champions program operates year round to help restore the natural ecosystems in state parks or assist with much needed general maintenance projects.
You can join one of the many volunteer teams who are helping to keep our parks going. Current projects include improving the vital habitat at Half Moon Bay (San Mateo), Silver Strand (San Diego), or Palomar Mountain (San Diego), repairing trails at Wildwood Canyon in San Bernardino, and you can even help with general park maintenance at Candlestick Point in San Francisco.
