Olompali State Historic Park

Presented by Friends of Olompali, a community based nonprofit supporting Cultural and Natural History education at Olompali since 1982. There is no cost for our walks &amp; talks but they are limited to 25 persons so sign up fast!
Join anthropologist Alex Coburn as he takes us back in Deep Time. Following animal migration routes, Olompali's first residents settled on the North Bay's western shoreline when the present San Francisco Bay began to form about 8000 years ago. Melting glaciers caused sea level to rise and flooded the Bay floor, and in time, Olompali became the largest settlement on the North Bay's western shoreline.
Date: Saturday, July 11, 2026
Time: 10 am to 12 noon
Place: Olompali State Historic Park--meet in the parking lot then we will move to shady areas along the old carriage road near historic buildings. This is a very short walk. *Bring a folding camp chair if you like for the opening talk.
Bring: sun protection, water, snacks
About your guide:
Alex Coburn is an anthropologist and safari guide specializing in the relationship between humans and the natural world. He began his career with California State Parks and worked on the archeological dig in 2016 near the frontage road by Olompali. His work explores a central question: how have humans shaped and been shaped by the landscapes they inhabit?
Cost: There is no cost for the event but parking is $8. Pay by cash, check or via smartphone with QR code at the parking lot. No parking fee is charged if you borrow a free State Parks pass from your local public library. This event is limited to 25 persons so RSVP now at: Olompali.org:events

Personal Training with Unlimited DEXA and VO2 Max

Custom Fit

Most training programs run on guesswork. Custom Fit replaces it with measurement. At its San Francisco studios, Personal Training and Partner Training memberships include unlimited DEXA body-composition scans and VO2 max testing — diagnostics usually sold one scan at a time or reserved for specialized clinics. Custom Fit members can test as often as they train. The reasoning is straightforward. A DEXA scan measures fat, lean muscle, and bone density with clinical precision. A VO2 max test measures the body's maximum oxygen uptake, one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular fitness and long-term health. Run those tests on a regular cadence and a member can see exactly what is changing, where, and whether a program is working — rather than relying on the scale or the mirror. That is the idea behind Custom Fit's positioning: not a gym, a performance lab. Every program is built from a member's measured body composition and cardiovascular capacity, then adjusted as the data moves. The goal is to eliminate the guesswork that defines most fitness routines and to treat training as something you can verify. The model also brings longevity diagnostics that usually live in concierge medicine into a routine training week. Body composition and cardiovascular capacity are central markers of how well a person is aging, and regular testing keeps those numbers visible rather than treating them as an occasional, expensive add-on. Custom Fit operates in Hayes Valley (323 Octavia Street), on Market Street (1844 Market), and with a Downtown San Francisco location on Battery Street (570 Battery) opening soon. Personal Training, Partner Training, and select memberships include the testing. More information is available at customfitsf.com.
