I enjoyed last year’s campaign so much that I couldn’t wait to get started again. Together, we raised $8.7 million for our favorite charities. I am proud to say this was the most we’ve ever raised and the biggest annual increase in the history of the campaign. It was truly a fantastic year, and working with so many wonderful and compassionate volunteers was a tremendous inspiration. In fact, my belief that Californians are the most generous people in the world is stronger than ever, and I know that we can set the bar even higher this year.

  • Annex 18 Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department
    Santa Clara County Community Wildfire Protection Plan Annex 18 – County of Santa Clara Parks and Recreation Department ANNEX 18. COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT Prepared by: Flint Glines, Seth Hiatt, Don Rocha, John Patterson, and Barry Hill Santa Clara County acquired its first parkland in 1924, purchasing 400 acres near Cupertino, which became Stevens Creek County Park. In 1956, the Department of Parks and Recreation was formed. Currently, the regional parks system has expanded to 29 parks encompassing nearly 48,000 acres. Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department (County Parks) provides a sustainable system of diverse regional parks, trails, and natural areas that connects people with the natural environment, and supports healthy lifestyles, while balancing recreation opportunities with the protection of natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources (https://www.sccgov.org/sites/parks/AboutUs/Pages/About-the-County-Regional-Parks.aspx). County Parks are regional parks located close to home, yet away from the pressures of the valley’s urban lifestyle. The parks offer opportunities for recreation in a natural environment to all County residents. Regional parks are larger in size, usually more than 200 acres, than local neighborhood or community parks. Many of the County’s regional parks also feature points of local historic interest. County park locations are shown in Figure 18.1.
