Each San Francisco neighborhood (defined by zipcode) can visit the California Academy of Sciences for free over a three-day weekend (Friday, Saturday, or Sunday) in the spring and fall of each year.

So that means as long as you have a driver’s license or other proof of residency, you can save yourself $35.95 and visit the museum for free. Read the full rules.

The Rules: Each visiting adult must show a valid photo ID with proof of residency (you may not bring out of town guests for free; they still have to pay). Visiting adults are limited to six children for free entry.

The following items or combinations are acceptable:

• A driver’s license or state ID card
• Photo ID plus postmarked envelope, postcard, or magazine label with name and date
• Photo ID plus utility bill (gas/electric/cable), bank statement, or letter from a government agency with name and home address (not a P.O. Box)

The current EV chargers in use at Madrone have become obsolete as of April, 2019 due to Chargepoint’s decommissioning of 2G networked charging stations and will need to be replaced. At the last board meeting held on 02/27/19, the board approved the recommendation submitted by the EV Charger Replacement Committee with an implementation plan in two phases at no cost to the HOA and homeowners by taking advantage of a PG&E grant and guarantees issued by Powerflex:

1.    Phase 1: Immediate replacement of current eleven Chargepoint stations by Powerflex. The planned cutover date is Tuesday, 03/26/19.

2.    Phase 2: Installation of approximately 150+ EV charge stations to make EV charging available to most residents, subject to the physical limitations of the building and the approval of an energy grant from PG&E. We have been working diligently with PG&E and Powerflex, and hope to start this project later this year or in early 2020 at the latest, as soon as the PG&E grant is obtained. This is very exciting news, especially to current and/or future EV owners.

Residents who are currently assigned to a parking space with Chargepoint chargers will be contacted directly with detailed information on how to use the new PowerFlex units.

Please direct questions to Gina Gorman at (415) 558-1678.
