The Golden Gate Raptor Observatory has an incredible legacy. They have kept a pulse on the state of Pacific Flyway raptors for four decades, and have also developed one of the most advanced Community Science operations in any national park.

This is a family-friendly program and will be interactive, so come prepared to share your fabulous and fun camping stories!

The Crissy Field Center is a dynamic hub of youth engagement for the Golden Gate National Parks, empowering new generations of youth participants who traditionally have had little-to-no access to national parks to become bold leaders.

Join design expert Richard Kennedy from James Corner Field Operations for an afternoon conversation and overview about designing the Presidio Tunnel Tops.
