Save Coloma's State Historic Park!



In the efforts to keep a valued asset open, Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park, the birthplace of the California Gold Rush, the craze of the 49ers, and the development of the Sacramento Valley, I see my role as a supporter of the Gold Discovery Park Association and an advocate for the ongoing preservation of this beautiful California State Park!

Volunteers are appreciated . . .

On Saturday, April 24, the GDPA Board of Directors, MGDSHP Staff, Gold Fields District Superintendent, and Marshall Gold Docents gathered for the annual Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon held outdoors at the Coloma Country Inn. On what was probably the most beautiful Spring afternoon to date the gardens of the Inn came alive with many people who've made Marshall Gold their second home.

GDPA Board Member, Tal Jones, sat under the wisteria and played keyboard providing a nice mix of background music while the Native Sons prepared and served a terrific lunch. The Native Sons group are always so generous with their time and efforts, often providing free breakfast for docents and volunteers during Coloma Gold Rush Live. After lunch, Ranger Eric, who's been acting as the coordinator for the interpretive program in addition to his daily park duties, acknowledged everyone who made the afternoon possible and honored some of our extra-special volunteers.
