SEE HOW YOUR DONATIONS HELP CHILDREN, ADULTS, PARKS, ANIMALS, PLANTS...

MAPA has submitted a proposal to operate Russian Gulch State Park to assist Parks in keeping it open to the public. If Parks accepts MAPA's proposal, we hope to start readying Russian Gulch for the camping season by early 2012.

MAPA's goal is to have the park self-sustaining within two years, however -

Start-up Donation funds are crucial to this endeavor, as well as Volunteers.  Please help.

Please contact MAPA at mapa@mendoparks.org, or 707.937.4700.
Your donations help MAPA provide programs for 5000 school children each year who attend our parks on school field trips to study tidepools, marine mammals, birds and plants.
Your donations help support exhibits and displays in six visitor centers in our local state parks.
Your donations help fund Living History school field trips to the Ford House Museum where children make biscuits from scratch, crank ice-cream, make butter from cream, create corn-husk dolls, wash clothes in a metal tub with a scrubbing board and then hang them to air-dry, and play pioneer games.
