Once again volunteers will join with the stewardship organization V-O-CAL (Volunteers for Outdoor California) to help SF Recreation & Parks Department build and repair several different sections of the park's trails, and we need your help!
Watch this video to see what SFRPD, V-O-CAL, and over 100 volunteers accomplished a couple of years ago in McLaren. The two major trails completed then (the new switchback up University Hill, and a nicely meandering upgrade to the south slope grasslands trail) now are among the more popular paths in the park. By general acclaim, these new trails are fantastic upgrades to McLaren’s network -- they have less than 10 percent grade, provide multiple options for short or long loop hikes, and reroute foot traffic away from high-erosion areas.
In other words, we want to help them have a great event this year, and entice them back again next year, too! Sign up for all-day trail duty, or join us in camp for an hour or a day to help keep the whole operation running smoothly.
On Saturday and Sunday breakfast and lunch are provided, and Saturday evening we will enjoy entertainment around the campfire and a scrumptious outdoor dinner. You can even camp overnight in McLaren Park!
Here is the Project Fact Sheet, including daily schedules, maps and photos of the proposed work, as well as many and varied ways for you to particiate.There’s plenty to do for one and all, so find your calling and pitch in! See ya around the campfire...
