THE "CLEANER CALIFORNIA COAST" KIOSK AT THE GRANDI BUILDING
IN DOWNTOWN POINT REYES STATION
This kiosk next to the old Grandi Building is staffed with volunteers of all ages. Promoting "Leave No Trace" concepts, it came to town in 2010 as the Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center spearheaded by Dona Larkin. Madeline Hope saw the space available and converted it to serve the initiatives of Cleaner California Coast and West Marin Food Systems. Volunteers have produced art installations and pop-up educational waste events.
Pictured are four generations of the Larkin family who care for the coastline. From the left are son Ian with June, the French bulldog; granddaughter Finley; Dona with Lucy, the miniature pincher; and Great Grandma Marty. The kiosk serves visitors and locals with resources for land and and coast stewardship and climate action tips. Recycle, renew, reuse and rethink use of all resources.
