We are thrilled to introduce and welcome Fabian Hannemann to our Board of Directors.

After a summer of raging wildfires and arid drought conditions, 9 massive storms moved in from the Pacific, drenching California. There was a brief dry spell in February, then another storm with unusually cold precipitation fell in early March, dropping 6 feet of snow in Tahoe and a foot of snow even at low altitudes. Since early 2023, almost all of CA has received 400% to 600% of its typical average rainfall, according to the National Weather Service.

We are thrilled to have Carly Mangan taking the lead on our social media campaigns and outreach this year! Carly started working with the Sugar Pine Foundation in January and has been doing a fantastic job supporting our small organization in many ways – even though she works another job full time!
