Our Community Events Series Sponsors
Bill and Jean Lane Endowment
The late Ambassador Laurence W. “Bill” Lane, Jr. and his wife Jean sponsored POST’s Wallace Stegner Lectures from their inception in 1993. Jean passed away in 2017, but had established the Bill and Jean Lane Endowment to provide for their annual lead sponsorship of this beloved series. We applaud Jean and Bill, whose unwavering support has enabled us to evolve our former lecture series into a diverse, program of quality monthly events, offering a variety of ways for community members to learn and engage throughout the year

Calling all women and non-binary identifying community members! Join Peninsula Open Space Trust and Grassroots Ecology for an affinity group volunteering event.
Volunteers will remove weed species from restoration zones and sensitive habitat areas within Arastradero Preserve. Early season weeding is generally more detailed work, removing cotyledons (baby weeds) while remaining close to the ground. We may begin to move around and remove some of our larger weeds as well, depending on progress made during the event. Additionally, we may support maintenance of planting areas by shoveling and moving mulch with wheelbarrows. This event will involve lifting, digging, carrying, bending, and walking on uneven terrain.
This event will involve lifting, carrying, bending, and walking on flat and uneven terrain.
