Trains on Lake Street?!
Courtesy of train buff Chuck McMackin, who is also the head gardener for the Richmond District for Rec & Park, we have posted historic photographs of Muni Trains in the Inner Richmond.
New Rec & Park GM tours parks on bike!
New Recreation and Park General Manager Jared Blumenfeld has been touring his domain on bike to get a first-hand look at all the parks. He is keeping a blog of his experiences. You can see his comments on Mountain Lake Park here.
FMLP now accepting online donations. The Friends of Mountain Lake Park have added a DONATE button to our website --on the left side of each page. We can accept tax-deductible contributions via credit card or with your PayPal account. We also gladly accept checks. (Click the "Donate" link at the top of the home page for mailing instructions.)
Right now, the primary expense of FMLP is for the dog cleanup bags at the three dispensing stations in the park. It would be great if dog owners would contribute to this expense.
However, it is likely that FMLP will embark on a fundraising effort in 2009 to support development of a new vegetation management plan for the park.
