Dear Tom & Shirley,

Richmond Shoreline Activities
 

MLK Day of Service Project
Monday, January 17, 9:00 am - 12:30 pm
Richmond Shoreline Clean-Up
Shimada Friendship Park, Marina Bay, Richmond

 
In honor of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, CESP will join The Watershed Project, East Bay Regional Parks and Golden Gate Audubon Society in the annual Richmond Shoreline Clean-up at Shimada Friendship Park in Marina Bay. We will help preserve Richmond's 32 miles of shoreline by pulling harmful Fennel plants, spreading mulch to keep back invasive Ice Plant, picking up trash and tracking it to better understand what is going into the Bay. Don't forget to bring boots, hat, sunscreen, and a personal water bottle! Free refreshments will be served.

The East Bay Regional Park District will host a community workshop to develop a long-term strategy for the environmental restoration of the Breuner and Giant Marshes within the Point Pinole Regional Shoreline. This is your opportunity to guide an important project that will also include public access improvements, additional Bay Trail segments and educational features.

Re: Point Molate Bay Trail Connection
Point Richmond Community Center
139 Washington Street, Richmond

 
Come to a community workshop to share your ideas regarding the proposed Bay Trail connection between Castro St. and Point Molate. This is a chance for you to let the City of Richmond know how important it is to have safe access to Point Molate for cyclists and pedestrians on an off-street trail as soon as possible.CESP remains the sole organization fighting the State Lands Commission to require Chevron to allow Bay Trail access near the I-580 corridor in Richmond. This is an ongoing effort and we are optimistic that we will have success with this effort in the near future.
