Walter Haas Trail Open House
The Capital Committee of the Rec & Park Commission approved the design for the Walter Haas – Beacon St Trail on May 6. However, the plan varies significantly from the consensus criteria reached by neighbors at a meeting held at Upper Noe Rec Center on December 10. Rec & Park manager Lisa Wayne has offered an 'Open Air' Meeting this Monday, May 18 from 4:30 to 7 pm to allow residents to walk the actual proposed trail and to offer feedback. Staff will be stationed on Beacon Street across from Billy Goat Hill. Stop by anytime during these hours.

Recent Happenings at Upper Noe
Music in the Playground
On Saturday, May 16 visitors to the playground were delighted by the rich tones of local talent Jeff Troiano playing his acoustic guitar and singing a mix of original songs and popular classic tunes. Sweet melodies wafting over the busy park added cheer to an overcast day and held the sandbox crowd in rapt attention.
CA Natives in Bloom
While Ladybug Gardeners leader Joan Lionberger tends to the plants, Markos Major of Climate Action Now points out CA natives to participants in the tour. With no irrigation, this amazingly resilient garden is lush with blooms after our long, dry winter. Upper Noe simply enjoys the garden for its beauty and low-maintenance, while Markos' organization actively promotes replacing pavement with CA natives.
Bom Dia Supports Upper Noe
Thanks go out to Bom Dia Market, our new neighbors at the corner of 29th and Sanchez, who raised over $500 for our park and programs on Sunday, April 26, at their spring celebration. A percentage of all purchases made that day went to support Upper Noe Recreation Center. The festive atmosphere of the event livened up Sanchez Street and the food samples were delicious.
