HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
TRAIL & HABITAT WORK -
SFUR members Tom Borden, Alex Carrol, Andy Beach and Jason Biteng proudly pose with a new switchback
SF Urban Riders most important contribution is providing volunteer effort to improve our recreational trails and revitalize neglected open space. We believe land management policies that encourage a healthy combination of recreation and restoration is what brings community together and accomplishes common goals.
SFUR members continue to contribute to the stewardship of our environment:
2010 – 1810 hours
2009 – 1934 total hours
2008 – 607 total hours
Events include regular work days on UCSF’s Mount Sutro Open Space, as well as other locations such as McLaren Park. Every place we work is unique and each has a colorful history, some going back over 100 years old.
Don’t miss this great opportunity to participate in and learn trail building and habitat restoration skills right here in San Francisco!
