Historical Significance of Candlestick Point State Recreation Area

We are excited to host YCD’s inaugural We Run Bayview 5K at the iconic Candlestick Point State Recreation Area (CPSRA), a location deeply tied to the legacy of our founder, Claude Everhart.

Claude Everhart has been a pivotal figure in our community's development. As the chairman of the Candlestick Point Citizens’ Advisory Committee, he played a crucial role in transforming the Bayview–Hunters Point area into the beautiful CPSRA we enjoy today. Claude championed community-driven development, turning neglected and polluted land into a vibrant natural park built on landfill.

In the late 1950s, Candlestick Park Stadium's construction drastically changed the area, leaving it neglected and used as a dumpsite. By the early 1970s, the local community, including Everhart and Art Agnos, began lobbying to reclaim the land for a park.

Thanks to the efforts of Everhart, Agnos, and other community leaders, in 1974, California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown secured $10 million in funding for the park. The land was finally designated for a state park in 1977, with neighborhood residents and local businesses coming together to develop fishing piers, picnicking areas, and trails.

Our We Run Bayview 5K honors the enduring impact of Claude Everhart's contributions. Join us in trailing along the paths that have been shaped by our community's history and efforts, and help us build a vibrant future together.
