CODE: CIEE12
NAME: Golden Gate National Recreation Area 7
LOCATION: San Francisco, California
ARRIVAL DATE: November 1
DEPARTURE DATE: November 18
TYPE: RENO / ENVI
VOLS: 15
DESCRIPTION: Golden Gate National Recreation Area, situated in San Francisco, is the largest urban park in the world. Its mission is to preserve and enhance the natural environment and cultural resources of the coastal lands north and south of the Golden Gate. Volunteers will perform a variety of trail work tasks, including but not limited to: removing evasive plants and litter, out-sloping trail tread surfaces, building cable fence, restoring historic gun batteries, building railroad-tie stair cases, repairing beach sand-ladders and fence-lines. This type of work will be performed in several locations throughout the term of the project, including the famous prison Alcatraz. Alcatraz Island is one of the park’s most popular destinations, offering a close-up look at a historic and infamous federal prison long off-limits to the public. Visitors to the island cannot only explore the remnants of the prison, but can also learn about the Indian occupation of 1969 - 1971, early military fortifications (the first U.S. fort on the coast), and the West Coast's first (and oldest operating) lighthouse. While overlooking the San Francisco Bay, volunteers will help preserve these structures and the island's many natural features - gardens, tide pools, and bird colonies. Volunteers will take a free ferry to get to this work site. Another workcamp site is at Crissy Field. With the Golden Gate Bridge as its backdrop, this stunning site was long neglected and covered in crumbling asphalt, run-down structures, chain link fence, and shoreline rubble as recently as 1997. Thanks to intensive renewal and restoration by organizations and volunteers like you, Crissy Field now features 100 acres of nature, history, and recreation, including a restored tidal marsh and dunes, a scenic promenade, restored historic airfield, beaches and a new community environmental facility. Volunteers are welcome at all workday events and are invited to attend trainings designed to educate interested volunteers about the natural, cultural, and historic resources of Crissy Field, including resource management and ecological restoration.
ACCOMODATIONS: Volunteers will stay on the Main Post of the Presidio of San Francisco in a former US Army Barrack. It includes a kitchen, separate bathrooms, showers for men and women, and a washer and dryer. Volunteers will share a small room with one, or two, fellow volunteers. Food will be provided by GGNRA, and the volunteers will prepare their meals together. Volunteers will have direct access to public transportation, entertainment, and attractions of San Francisco.
TERMINAL: San Francisco International AIRPORT (17 miles), Oakland International AIRPORT (20 miles)
REQS: The work is physical but does not require immense strength or special skills. Bring leather working boots, rain gear, and clothing for cold and wet weather.
COMMENTS: We will do our best to accommodate anyone with any physical impairment and we encourage any and everyone to participate. This type of activity will require group participation.
