The End of the Anchor Outs in Richardson Bay
THURS, OC T 29, 2026 1:00 PM Clubhouse
Join Harbormaster Jim Malcolm for a discussion of this multi-year project that required partnerships with shore-side housing agencies, relocations, trust-building and patience. With over 200 illegal boats anchored in Richardson Bay at its peak, this floating community created safety issues for its residents and damaged the Bay’s Eelgrass Protection Zone, a foundational part of the Bay’s ecosystem. In October 2026, the final two unauthorized boats will leave their anchors in Richardson Bay. (Image credit: Marin Independent Journal.)

From Harm to Healing: Justice is an Inside Job
THURS, NOV 5, 2026 1:00 PM Clubhouse
Registration Opens September 15, 2026
Jess Nichol, sister of Polly Klaas, will talk with us about her personal story of justice, healing, and transformation. She will share how she ended up as the sister of a murder victim and opponent of the law passed in her sister's name. Drawing on her work inside San Quentin Rehabilitation Center, Jess will describe what it’s like walking into San Quentin every week, and what she encounters inside. She'll reflect on the inner journey that made this work possible, what genuine accountability looks like up close, and why this work has become a source of real inspiration. Jess will also highlight her work organizing with families of murder victims who are calling for an end to life without parole sentences for young people, and why she has come to believe that punishment and justice are not the same thing.
