If there are small improvements in the park that look as if they could be achieved by volunteers (neighborhood & UC Berkeley students, for example), please get in touch with me ASAP about the possibility of including your group in our next grant application for Chancellor's Community Partnership funds. I also know about other ways to get volunteers. My email is f5creeks@aol.com, phone 510 848 9358.

Perhaps they do not see the signs designating the area "no Off leash". (signs could be bolder and lower) Maybe they do not read the informative signs about the endangered, helpless creatures trying to survive the winter. Perhaps the off leash dog area can be fenced in or citations can be issued to offenders...the humans that is. Sylvia Falcon, Point Isabel Dog Owners board member. (PIDO).
