Claremont Canyon Regional Preserve—Eucalyptus Removal is Underway by Marilyn Goldhaber
Tribute to Tim Wallace by Marilyn Goldhaber
This spring, the Conservancy placed a bench in upper Claremont Canyon in memory of our first board president Tim Wallace who passed away last May. Tim was 92. Tim provided tremendous leadership and guidance to the Conservancy over his 13 years as president through his diverse background and natural talent as a leader.

An awesome Earth Month in Garber Park, by Shelagh Brodersen
Walking in Garber Park just became easier—and safer—thanks to the many volunteers who came to the park during Earth Month. Eager to once again be out in nature, we formed small groups on three consecutive weekends in April to pull weeds and haul them down to a dumpster provided by the City of Oakland.
UC's Evacuation Support Project, by Marilyn Goldhaber
Claremont Avenue above Alvarado Road was transformed this past winter as part of an ongoing fire management program carried out by UC’s Facilities Services. Eucalyptus and other trees that could fall across the road during an emergency or ignite close to the road were logged along with brushy understory, within 100 feet of edge of the pavement . The total project area was approximately 18 acres.
