What is a Group?

Because Sierra Club chapters cover so much territory, they form local sub-units called groups (or sometimes regional groups). The San Franciscl Bay Chapter is divided into eight groups. Groups address environmental issues that fall withiin their boundaries. They also sponsor outings and other activities. These events are open to everyone; you don't need to be a group member to participate.

To become involved in the Sierra Club at the most local level, get active with your group. For ways to participate, see the articles in the section, or call your group contact listed below.
