The
City of San Diego, Park and Recreation Department, Open Space Division
manages over 25,000 acres of open space, including open space parks,
and canyons. Preservation of Open Space has been a major goal of the
City for many years. Open Space provides the citizens of San Diego with
such benefits as scenic vistas, preservation of natural resources,
outdoor recreation, and other benefits to health and well being. San
Diego’s Canyons contain natural and cultural history unique to our
region. For many communities these canyons are all that remain as
undeveloped natural landscape. Through partnerships and cooperation
with community and environmental groups and City Departments we strive
to preserve and protect these lands for future generation. Our Thanks

Institute, Project Clean, I Love A Clean San Diego, SD Police,
SDG&E, MWWD, Eagle Scouts , and San Diego Children and Nature
Collaborative. A special thanks to the greatest resource of all;
community volunteers like you.
