One Tam: many ways to give back to the mountain that gives us so much

The Tam Van, Our Mobile Visitor Center

About the Tam Van

In a quest to educate current park users and inspire new audiences to explore the parks, One Tam created the “Tam Van” mobile visitor center: a retrofitted bread truck that travels to park sites and communities across Marin County. Staff and volunteers dispense maps, program information, and friendly advice on how people can make the most of their visit. Family-friendly activities are also offered to provide fun and informative connections to our work and to the mountain. Since 2015, it has been providing many of the functions of a visitor center, at a fraction of the cost of constructing a permanent facility. Importantly, it reaches new audiences that find it difficult to get to the parks due to distance or limited transit options. For questions, please reach out to community@parksconservancy.org. 

The Tam Van is largely funded by Measure A. Thank you Marin County residents!
