San Diego, CA: Cabrillo National Monument Superintendent Andrea Compton invites the public to attend an open house meeting to share the Cabrillo National Monument Trail Management Plan / Environmental Assessment. The plan will be used to guide the development, maintenance, and use of the trail system for the next 25 years with the goal of improving visitor experience and safety while protecting the park’s natural and cultural resources. Cabrillo National Monument staff will be hosting an open house for the public on Thursday, April 25, 2019. No formal program is scheduled, but those interested in attending may stop by to learn more and provide their comments.
