Fremont Peak Will Not Close Completely!
 
Thanks to unified objections by you, and other citizens throughout the state, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has announced that no parks will close completely.  While no formal announcement has been made, Superintendant Matt Fuzi has stated that at most he expects the park to close, at most, two weekdays per week.  He also stated that because FPOA is self-sufficient, he  expects us to continue to have access for members and special programs even on closure days.

However, the situation is still not completely stabilized.  FPOA continues to operate on month-to-month extensions of its contract.  Now that the closure crisis has been averted, we'll begin working on a new contract with the DPR

Read a retrospective on the closure crisis here.
