Information:
Help ACSD to secure land surrounding one of San Diego's most popular climbing
destinations! The San Diego River Park Foundation is in the process of
purchasing some of the private land holdings near the summit of El Cajon
Mountain and south of El Capitan Reservoir. These areas will be designated
as Open Space, and conserved for public use. We need your help to reach $1,000
or more to help play a part in this great opportunity, and permanently set aside
almost 200 acres of land. This Fundraising Campaign will help raise the
required matching funds to activate a $1.1 million dollar grant for land
acquisitions.
Although the face of El Cajon Mtn (where we climb) lies on
National Forest land, it is critical that ACSD joins forces with other
organizations and user groups to protect the surrounding areas, which
consist of numerous multi-use trails, and environmental resources. When
ACSD reaches the $1,000 goal, we will be recognized on a plaque, which
will be located on the property we helped conserve for future generations
of outdoor enthusiasts. And most importantly, we will help make a difference
by acquiring more public land in this beautiful area of San Diego. This is
an incredible opportunity. Any contribution will help us in reaching this
goal. If you've ever climbed at El Cajon Mountain, then this is your chance
to help give back. Thanks!

Climbers of San Diego by January 30, 2010.
