After organizing hikes throughout Sonoma County for two decades, intrepid hikers Bill Myers and Dave Chalk retired in May 2020. They built a community of hikers who deeply appreciate our local parks, enabling them to safely explore new trails, enhance their health and create new friendships. The Parks Foundation created a fund in their honor that accepts donations from the public to help fund new trails, trail upgrades and camping facilities at Hood Mountain Regional Park & Open Space Preserve.
Hood Mountain is an iconic park in the Regional Parks system. It represents one of the few opportunities for a true wilderness experience in Sonoma County and, when joined with Sugarloaf Ridge State Park, creates some really exciting opportunities for through hiking and multi-day hikes. Myers and Chalk are involved in prioritizing the park projects to be advanced through the Bill & Dave Legacy Fund. A recent priority was the addition of the 100-Acre Ranch property. A small portion of the funds also will support the continuation of the hiking series. Please join us in supporting these park projects and honoring Bill & Dave! |
