We're happy to appear at street fairs, festivals, and other community events to show old photos of the neighborhood, give out free booklets, and chat with people about west SF history.
We also do slide shows and lectures for community groups, classrooms, preschools, clubs, historical societies, and other organizations who'd like to hear more about topics like the Sunset district, the old Rancho San Miguel, earthquake shacks, and "Carville".
Special walks for WNP members and their guests occur at least quarterly. Past walks have included Lands End, Ocean Avenue, the Parkside District, and Forest Hill. Join the Western Neighborhoods Project and come learn more about these fascinating San Francisco neighborhoods.

Mountain Lake and More Walk
For our quarterly WNP member history walk, Woody LaBounty will lead a stroll around and in his childhood stomping grounds of Mountain Lake Park in the Richmond District on Saturday, February 27, 2010 at 11:00am.
We'll talk about Spanish explorers, a secret cemetery, haunted rope swings, famous architects and alligators, and other local history. The walk is flat, and the weather could be a sunny 70 degrees, or an overcast 40 degrees. Heavy rain cancels.
The tour is free, but limited to WNP members and their guests, and has a maximum capacity of 30 people. To make your reservation, email Woody LaBounty, and he’ll confirm with the meeting place. -
