The Pine Ridge Association (PRA) | |||||||
|
The Pine Ridge Association is an official state park cooperating association that was formed in 1975
to assist park staff in designing interpretive and educational programs and presenting the programs
to the public.
PRA activities include guided walks, evening programs in the Visitor Center, and annual events such as the Mother's Day breakfast, the Coe Backcountry Weekend, and the fall TarantulaFest. The Pine Ridge Association publishes a newsletter (The Ponderosa), maps, interpretive leaflets and books, and free informational handouts.
The California Department of Parks and Recreation and the Pine Ridge Association sponsor a uniformed volunteer training
program. Uniformed volunteers contribute thousands of hours to the park each year. If
you've visited Coe Park, chances are you've been assisted by a uniformed volunteer.
| The Pine Ridge Association welcomes your support. The annual PRA basic membership dues are $10 for an individual, $15 for a family or household, and half price for seniors 62 and over. With your membership, you'll get a subscription to the The Ponderosa, an opportunity to join your fellow members on special outings in the backcountry, and a 15 percent discount on most of the items in the PRA museum store. If you'd like to join the PRA without further ado, please fill out a membership form.
