Promontory Point Habitat Enhancement Project
Work at Promontory Point has been underway since July 1999. A celebration
of the progress volunteers have made in restoring the area was held in
November 2000. Volunteers are still needed for ongoing tasks to restore
and maintain the natural setting and for special projects. MESA works
throughout the year at the site, installing native plants and removing
non-native ones. Work parties meet regularly on the second Sundays and
third Thursdays at the Promontory Point Education Pavilion. Parties start
at 10 a.m. Tools and gloves are available. For groups of five or more
MESA will make special arrangements.
Contact: Bonnie Miller, MESA - Promontory Point Volunteer Coordinator,
