Welcome to the City: San Francisco

Join us for Welcome to the City in San Francisco, hosted in partnership with the California State Parks Foundation at Candlestick Point SRA. The project will be held Saturday, November 1 from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m. at Candlestick Point (500 Hunters Point Expy, San Francisco, CA 94124). Please register in advance to help us and our non-profit partner plan accordingly.

Project description:

Help build brand new redwood picnic tables for our park! Volunteers must use proper lifting techniques when working with the heavy redwood planks and moving the tables once assembled. Some volunteers will be asked to use hammers and socket drivers, so proper precautions should be taken to ensure safety. If participants would rather, they can choose to pick up micro-trash and debris from the park. We will provide volunteers with tools and gloves. We recommend wearing long sleeved shirts and a hat. Ages 16 and older are welcome (minors must be accompanied by an adult and bring a waiver signed by their guardian). Snacks will be provided.

Welcome to the City is an annual series of regional events which help alumni connect with their local UCSC community. While the program is designed with recent grads in mind, all are welcome to participate.
