Trails Forever Dinner 2024

22nd Annual Trails Forever Dinner - Alcatraz

The 22nd Annual Trails Forever Dinner will be on Alcatraz on Saturday, October 19, 2024.

Thank you to our wonderful supporters who attended or donated to the 22nd Annual Trails Forever Dinner on the Rock! It was truly a magical and memorable evening. 

Also, a big thanks to those who purchased Adventure Outings packages. We can't wait to host your group! Some outings are still available. Please visit our "Explore Adventure Outings" page for detailed information on our signature experiences that include dinners and activities at GGNRA sites like Muir Woods, Fort Point, Alcatraz, Marin Headlands, and more! Take a look and grab a friend - or a group of friends - to purchase one of these amazing experiences that support the Parks Conservancy.  Email Dennise Abad, Special Events Director, with inquiries or questions dabad@parksconservancy.org

See you at Trails Forever next year! Location TBD.
