If you ever find yourself with free time on your hands and no ideas what to do, why not put that time to good use by volunteering around San Mateo?
There are plenty of volunteering opportunities near your San Mateo apartment, including becoming a nature volunteer serving local schools.
Nature volunteers support children in learning about, as well as developing love for science and nature. They work with small groups of children, both in the classroom and on the field, to discover more about the world in which they live. Learning is hands-on and allows children to get closer to the nature that is around them every day.
To become a volunteer, you need to be at least 18 years old, willing to complete a short training course that is run one day a week, and pay a small fee.
Once training is complete, you can give as little as four hours a month to the project. All volunteering takes place during the week, with details and new opportunities regularly updated on the volunteer site.

Produced by Envirosports, known for their scenic trail events, this half-marathon near San Mateo will be a test of a runner’s endurance and fortitude. It helps that the route is one of the prettiest in San Mateo County!
The race for both this half-marathon near San Mateo and the 5-mile starts and ends at the Huddart Park parking lot and rises to an elevation of close to 2000 feet at mile 6 (past the 5-Mile race turnaround) before descending again.
No worries though; the view of ancient redwoods, mountain flowers, and cool oak bowers should more than compensate for those aching leg muscles!
