Open Space Background

Joining The Foundation is not only a great way to show your support for our wonderful Open Space, it is also the easiest way to keep up to date on our restoration activities and events. Members receive a newsletter three times a year as well as invitations to special events. Being a member also allows you to join the governing board if you wish to be more involved in our work.

One of the best ways to show your support for our activities and help restore and protect our Open Space is to join the Foundation. Memberships are tax deductible to the extent allowable by law. There are a variety of membership levels depending on your desired commitment and joining is easy!

Join our Board!

The Foundation’s all-volunteer Board of Directors is always seeking new members.

The Foundation Board meets monthly to discuss and make decisions about restoration projects including our Oak Habitat Restoration Project and uses of other native plants, the state of our open spaces, educational and outreach programs, and more.

If you’re involved in the Open Space in any capacity -- hiker, cyclist, equestrian, dog owner, botany or biology student -- and are interested in joining the board, please send an email to us at: contact@wcosf.org.
