Looking for local getaways to avoid burning up big bucks on tanks of gasoline? If so, check out the diverse offerings on the Richmond Bay Calendar at www.pointrichmond.com/baytrail/calendar.htm.

    During the next several months, take a walk or kayak along Richmond’s scenic Bay Trail shoreline or go on a guided visit to local, regional and national parks to learn about the shoreline’s cultural and natural history.
    Volunteer opportunities are also available.
