“Find Your Park” Bay Area Day of Service: Free Coffee, Lunch & Snacks | Pacifica

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join the Student Conservation Association to commemorate Veterans Day with a Find Your Park Day of Service at Golden Gate National Recreation Area. With the support of American Express and in support of the Find Your Park campaign, SCA is mobilizing volunteers coast to coast to honor the National Park Service Centennial.

Join them as they team up with NPS and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy to plant native species and restore trails on Milagra Ridge.

Milagra Ridge has a unique military history. It was both a major base for the Army seacoast defense in World War II and a Nike anti-aircraft missile site in the Cold War era to protect the San Francisco Bay. With growth in military artillery, the use of this area as an army site became unneeded.

Schedule:

• 8:45 am – Free volunteer shuttle will depart from the Colma BART stop
• 9:00 am –  Registration and coffee begins

Please wear long pants and closed-toe shoes, preferably work boots or sturdy sneakers, and bring a reusable water bottle. The event will take place rain or shine, so please dress for the weather.

SCA will provide coffee, lunch, and snacks for all volunteers, as well as project materials, gloves, and free Find Your Park t-shirts.
