January Happenings 2026

Thank you for a wonderful year! As we close out 2025 and begin 2026, we are pleased to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who has been involved with our organization. To our volunteers, students, scouts, and community residents; to our financial supporters both large or small; to area homeowners who are making their properties safer from wildfire; and to everyone who drives by our canyon and simply admires the beauty of our open space. Thank you for what you do to help keep Claremont Canyon a wonderful wildland preserve. We have had a busy and successful 2025 on all fronts, and with your help, we look forward to making 2026 equally rewarding.
