Discover the History of More Mesa Open Space

Step into the past with historian Hattie Beresford as she uncovers the fascinating history of More Mesa Open Space. Explore the lives of the people who shaped this landscape and hear dramatic stories of scorching heat, devastating floods, relentless droughts—and even a shocking murder. Travel back to a lively 1901 beach party and see what remains of Rancho la Goleta today. This special presentation is co-hosted by the More Mesa Preservation Coalition, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting More Mesa as open space for generations to come.
