Call 415-561-3068 for information on Trail Keeper orientations and volunteer opportunities. Explore other GGNRA internship and volunteer opportunities year-round, including the Coastside's four national parks (Mori Point, Milagra Ridge, Rancho Corral de Tierra, and Sweeney Ridge), plus San Francisco's Ocean Beach and The Presidio, and Marin's Muir Woods.

FRIENDS OF SAN PEDRO VALLEY PARK

If you hike or bike in San Pedro Valley Park to enjoy its flora and fauna, and you want to help maintain the park's five trails and wildlife habitat, drop by the visitor center and join the volunteer team called Friends of San Pedro Valley Park. Several times a year, scientific experts present educational programs at the visitor center and guided hikes focusing on park wildlife, geology, and botany.

THE LABYRINTH

The labyrinth at Saint Edmund’s Church is available for all to enjoy as a place of peace and tranquility seven days a week. The gates open daily from 7 a.m. to dusk. The labyrinth is a metaphor for the spiritual journey as we search for the center and meaning of our lives. Since prehistoric times, the labyrinth has been a sacred path of meditation that confers real benefits to body and soul. It has been found in all religious traditions in various forms around the world. Saint Edmund's is at 1500 Perez Drive off Rosita Road in Linda Mar, Pacifica. Call 650-359-3364 for more information.
