Volunteers Supporting the
Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail
TRAIL STATUS Update 9/28: We are happy to report that the trail is now fully OPEN with footbridges in place. A tree across the trail between the Mission and the Presidio has been removed, and the trail between Richard Williams (Palo Parado) and Guy Tobin Trailheads is freshly mowed. The Mission was waiting for the end of firefly season to mow, but they report the trail across the Mission is now cleaned and open. Enjoy!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: Our jobs are fun and rewarding. Write to us: info@anzatrail.org.
This is event will bring Tubac residents together where they can meet other residents and, most importantly where they can learn about the in and around Tubac and about volunteer opportunities with the many great organizations. The event will be held at the arts center on November 21 from 4:00 to 6:00. There will be hors d’oeuvres and drinks.
A big thanks to the Tumacacori Mission National Historic Park for it’s donation of a Tuff Shed. ATCA has needed a clean, dry storage space for a long time. Trail Crew (left to right) Jerry, Glenn, Kurt, and Dan (Trail Boss and photographer) installed it today. A big thanks to these guys for all their work, too. June 3, 2024
Another on-going project underway in June, 2024, is the installation of distance markers along the trail roughly every quarter mile. These markers are intended to help first respoders find hikers who are in distress more quickly. Thanks to Keith Brown, who initially proposed the project and has worked hard to get markers in place, his wife Judy, who has been there every step of the way, and Trail Crew members Jerry and Kurt who have facilitated this project in many ways. Thanks, too, the the Juan Bautista National Historical Trail branch of the National Park Service for the mileage decals and the ATCA for those very expensive posts
