Review for San Bruno Mountain Watch, Brisbane, CA, USA
My involvement with Mt. Watch started over a decade ago. As a resident of the City of Brisbane ( one of many that flanks San Bruno Mt. ) , I wanted to become involved with this group that had been doing so much to protect and save our mountain. Mt. Watch to many residents of our town was viewed as anti-development, I quikely realized that those that felt that way had special interest towards the mountain, I also had a special interest towards our moutain. After attending my first meeting with Mt. Watch I realized that I could contribute to their efferts even though I didn't know anything about the mountains flora or fauna, what a HCP ( habitat conservation plan ) was or any of the other issues at the time Mt. Watch was involved with, all I knew is that everyone in their own way could make a contribution to its organization, Mt. Watch has shown the entire region what dedication and determination can acheive , what started as one man on a mission, became a mission in of itself to continue the effert to protect San Bruno Mountain, its more about the mission than the man on it.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
We are moving in the right direction.
