Earth Month Madness at SF Rec and Park
Do You Want to Be a Greenager?
The San Francisco Recreation and Park Department's Greenagers program is under the
umbrella of the department's Youth Stewardship Program. It offers teens from the
southeast side of San Francisco a chance to play an important role in the community
by improving our city's green spaces and raising awareness.
Greenagers work in various parks and open spaces throughout San Francisco, meet
with various Rec and Park staff, community members and partners; and create place-based
projects and or projects based on issues they are interested in. Participants will
meet and work with teens their own age, collaborate with other youth organizations
and gain crucial skills in facilitating workshops, networking, public speaking,
teamwork, environmental education, and community engagement.

Rec and Park Wins Merit Award for Creeks to Peaks Trail Project
The San Francisco Recreation and Park Department is the recipient of the California
Trails Conference Foundation's Merit Award for the Creeks to Peaks Trail Project.
The Project included the restoration of 22,000 feet of existing trails that connects
Glen Canyon and Twin Peaks for walkers, hikers, and runners. In addition, the Project
removed hazardous trees and decommissioned 640 feet of unsafe social trails that
contributed to erosion and habitat loss. Way-finding and directional signage was
installed to create a trail system that connects the creeks ecosystem to the top
of the iconic Twin Peaks in San Francisco. The Creeks to Peaks Trail Project was
funded by 2008 Clean and Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond, grants from California Habitat
Conservation Fund and The Trust for Public Land.
