Friends of Boggs Mountain

Friends of Boggs Mountain (FOBM) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization formed to enhance the visitor’s experience in the forest through educational, interpretive, and recreational programs, help in development of facilities, and assist with maintenance and infrastructure improvements at Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest (BMDSF). The organization cooperates with BMDSF management and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) to meet those objectives.

With BMDSF oversight and approval, we are organizing work crews to help rebuild Boggs trails. Please support our efforts with a donation and/or join as a member to help us revitalize the forest for all visitors! Thank you in advance.

Recently one of our equestrian members reported an incident in the forest which calls for reminding all users of proper trail etiquette for the comfort and safety of all. Please remember mountain bikers yield to hikers, trail runners and equestrians. If a mountain bike encounters any one of these forest users please pull off the trail and let them pass. If approaching from behind a simple verbal call out to let them know you need to pass will usually suffice.. If encountering a horse and rider it is usually recommended that you slow and pull off the trail on the downhill side but it’s best to inquire with the rider. Speaking of trail etiquette, please remember to keep all dogs on leash. ... See MoreSee Less

Friends of Boggs Mountain participated this year in Middletown High School’s “Reach-A-Dream” scholarship program. The program is community funded to provide graduating seniors who are moving on to higher education, trade schools, or entering the armed forces with scholarship awards. Each applicant goes through a rigorous application and interview process. This year’s awards ceremony was held on May 29, 2025 at Middletown High School. Friends of Boggs Mountain proudly awarded this year’s scholarship to Shaylee Rudy. Shaylee with a 4.0+ GPA excelled in all academic areas and held leadership roles in the many clubs and activities she participated in. She is the recipient of many awards and as an ardent volunteer has logged many community service hours. Shaylee will be attending Willamette University in Oregon this fall. We congratulate her on a job well done and wish her much success in the future. ... See MoreSee Less
