Candlestick Point: State Park for the People Wednesday, October 29th A little known fact is that San Francisco has its very own California State Park. Candlestick State Recreation Area is much more than the stadium (which is actually owned by the City). The urban shoreline park is a very important community environmental resource, used by bird watchers, picnickers, fisherman, and is in the process of an ecological transformation for the benefit of local critters and the Bayview community. The "Bayview Waterfront Plan," the development that includes Hunter's Point Shipyard and Yosemite Slough, will transform the entire area. Come learn about what ecological and community resources currently exist there and what we can all do to maintain and enhance our very own State Park. Restoring wetland habitat for local wildlife figures prominently in the discussion.
