Adieu from the Glen Park Festival Committee

March 21, 2025 by Rebecca Murray

As some of you know, for about 20 years, the Glen Park Neighborhood celebrated itself every spring with a festival on Wilder and Diamond streets. An all volunteer committee organized the festival, composed of local merchants and residents. The festival provided a fun day full of music, food and artists/crafts selling their wares. Proceeds from the […]

Glen Park Library: A Precious Gem

March 18, 2025 by Bonnee Waldstein

When it’s playtime for tots at the Glen Park Rec Center, dozens of 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds on trikes are on the move. Where are they going? The destination is obviously not the point. Into this organized chaos, Darren Heiber, Glen Park Library Branch Manager, leads Story Time, a half-hour in which Heiber, a high […]

These little metal street tags are everywhere – flat as they are, one almost tripped up our new restaurant

March 15, 2025 by Elizabeth Weise

Glen Park’s soon-to-be newest restaurant, La Cigale, is well on its way to completion. Until there was an unexpected glitch, as the San Francisco Standard reported on Thursday. Have you ever noticed little metal tags embedded in the sidewalk? Neither had the owners. But it turns out they’re important. As San Francisco Public Works notes […]

Saturday’s Glen Park Greenway Work Party is Cancelled.

“I’m very sorry to say that
we have cancelled our Work Party for this Saturday July 12, along with all organized volunteer activity on the Greenway until further notice.
As you may have read in the news, our fiscal sponsor, San Francisco Parks Alliance (SFPA), has shut itself down. Just as SFPA has shut itself down, the Greenway, as an organized part of SFPA, has also been “shut down.” We are busy looking for a suitable alternative fiscal sponsor that is willing to replace SFPA. That search is going well but it is a slow process. We had hoped to find temporary ways to enable the Greenway project to function responsibly as a community activity without a fiscal sponsor. Sadly, despite our best efforts and the help of many others in Glen Park, we have failed. That is why we must cancel our Saturday Work Party and discontinue future work parties and other organized volunteer activity on the Greenway (like weeding and watering) until further notice. We recognize that the Greenway is public open space and that the organizers of the Greenway project have no control over the activities of you or of anyone else on the Greenway. However, if you do venture onto the Greenway to satisfy your urge for outdoor recreation, please be aware that your activity is not in any way organized or sanctioned by the organizers of the Glen Park Greenway project. I’m well aware of the efforts that many of the
Greenway’s supporters are making to get the Greenway organized with a new fiscal sponsor and I’m confident that this will be arranged within weeks or perhaps a few months.
However long it takes, I will contact you with news of our progress.
Many thanks for all that you do for the Greenway.”

Nicholas Dewar, volunteer Project Director

Wonder what’s stopping just organizing it separate from that non-profit. It seems like the volunteers largely come from Glen Park.
