Memorializing Lois Hogle
Last issue, we reported the passing of Committee for Green Foothills’ co-founder, Lois Crozier-Hogle. Through her leadership, tenacity and vision, Lois created a tremendous legacy of preserved open spaces throughout the Peninsula. Since then, her family, the Committee, and the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District (MROSD) have been working to memorialize her by way of a beautiful bench in the open space she loved. A knoll within Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve overlooking Silicon Valley will provide a serene location to remember Lois and her legacy while providing hikers a much appreciated resting point. True to Lois’ style of recycling everything from cocktail napkins to rubber bands, the bench will be made from wood that has fallen on District land. Benches are a rarity within MROSD preserves. Only “significant supporters” who have helped form the District or made extraordinary contributions of time and effort to advance the work of the District have been so honored. Lois is one of those special people. Now we need your help! Committee for Green Foothills has agreed to fund the entire cost of constructing and installing the bench and we need your special gifts to make this happen. The total cost of the project is only $5,000. Can you help us raise the needed funds? Published October 2006 in Green Footnotes. Page last updated October 29, 2006. |
