SUMMARY:San Pedro Valley Park: Trail and Habitat Restoration Work Days
DESCRIPTION:Trail and Habitat Restoration Work Days \nEach month\, the second Saturday is designated for Trail Work and the third Saturday is designated for Habitat Restoration Work. Volunteers meet at the Visitor Center at 9 a.m. for Trail work and and 10 am for Habitat restoration to begin work with rangers and/or volunteer leaders. Tools are provided. Only gloves and other personal protective items (e.g.\, masks) are needed by volunteers.  Trail work typically involves clearing brush from the trail sides\, cleaning out drain dips\, raking out trail bends\, and cutting overhanging branches. Habitat Restoration often involves removing invasive plants (like the ever-present thistle) from trailside areas\, maintaining the Native Plant Garden at the Visitor Center\, or planting new vegetation. These work parties typically last about 3 hours\, i.e.\, until noon or 1 pm. \nIf you are interested in joining us\, or just learning more about what we do\, please call (650-355-5454) or email us (friendsofsanpedrovalley@gmail.com) and we’ll be happy to talk with you. Or just drop by the Visitor Center on any weekend day (from 10 am to 4 pm) and speak with one of the Friends’ volunteers who are there.

SUMMARY:Esplanade Beach Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Time: 3rd Saturday of the month from 9am to 11am. \nWhere to Meet: Meet at the top of the stairs on Esplanade Avenue next to Oceanaire Apartments (100 Esplanade Ave\, Pacifica\, CA).\nParking: Street parking only along Esplanade Avenue. There are no parking lots in the area. If it’s a great surfing or fishing day\, you may find parking up on Bill Drake Way or Palmetto Avenue (one block walk from the cleanup site).\nCleanup Areas: We’ll focus on the bluffs\, Coastal Trail parklet to the south\,  and the nearby streets\, where lots of litter and debris collects before the wind blows it into the ocean. Our goal is to pick it up before that happens! When the trail down to the beach is accessible we will cover as much of the beach as the tides allow.\nSupplies: Volunteers are encouraged to bring their own buckets and reusable gloves. Extra gloves and buckets for this site cleanup will be provided while supplies last. Because we are never sure of the weather\, make sure to bring extra layers\, a hat\, sunblock\, water and snacks.\nLitter:  Bottles\, cans\, wrappers\, packing straps\, cigarette butts\, and plenty of debris can be found on Manor and Esplanade Streets above the bluff as well as on the bluff.  Esplanade Beach when accessible receives a lot of styrofoam and plastic (huge chunks to micro size) from the ocean. Improperly-disposed litter includes bottles\, candy wrappers\, and dog duty bags.\nRestrooms: The closest restroom to the cleanup location is located inside the Chit Chat Café several blocks away from our meeting location (remember to pick up a coffee\, tea or muffin when there)! \nMore details:  https://www.pacificbeachcoalition.org/next-esplanade-beach-cleanup/ \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Mussel Rock Beach Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:About the Cleanup:\nTime: Fourth Saturday of the month from 9am-11am\, rain or shine. Check our online monthly calendar for exact dates.\nWhere to Meet:  At the Mussel Rock carpark located at the lower coastal end of Westline Drive by the second entrance to Allied Waste Transfer Station.  Drive north past the junction of Skyline Drive\, avoiding the other Westline Drive that goes up a steep hill.\nParking:  Free parking is available all the time on any of the roads or at the car park at the meet up spot. Follow the signs to the car park so that you do not get lost on the other Westline Drive that ends up above the Transfer Station.\nCleanup Areas: The team cleans up the streets\, bluffs\, car park and park\, itself\, as well as the beach if the tide is out far enough for our safety.  There is the Secret Waterfall nearby that is a good place to clean if you are looking for excitement rappelling down a rope to the bluff and walking down to the beach.\nSupplies: Volunteers are encouraged to bring their own buckets and reusable gloves. Extra gloves\, buckets\, pickup sticks and specific tools for this site cleanup will be provided while supplies last. The weather is unpredictable (very cold and windy\, although it can be sunny and warm).  Make sure to bring extra layers\, a hat\, sunblock\, water and snacks.\nLitter: The team usually picks up plastic bags\, bottles\, cigarettes and other household waste because this is where the Bay Area’s trash is brought before it is transferred to other sites. Mussel Rock Beach is a designated Japanese Tsunami Marine Debris Cleanup Program site\, and is the only one that has reported items to NOAA and GGNRA which appear to have originated from Japan.\nRestrooms: Regrettably\, there are no public restrooms at this site. \nSign Up Here!
