ABOUT CAVALLO POINT:
Cavallo Point – one look tells you this is a very special place. Look deeper and you'll find an innovative partnership.

Cavallo Point – the Lodge at the Golden Gate was created by the Fort Baker Retreat Group, a project of Passport Resorts, Equity Community Builders and Ajax Capital Group. The Fort Baker Retreat Group is working with the National Park Service and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy in a unique private/public/non-profit alliance to restore, enhance and preserve Fort Baker as a National Park for generations to come.

ABOUT OUR NAME 'CAVALLO POINT'
The name "Cavallo" is part of the San Francisco Bay's history. It dates from 1775 when a rocky point near Fort Baker was named "Punta de Caballo" by the commander of one of the first European vessels that sailed into the bay. Wild horses once roamed here, and "caballo" is the Spanish word for "horse." Early California settlers started using "Cavallo," as the pronunciation of b and v in Spanish are very close, and the name took hold.

Cavallo Point – the Lodge at the Golden Gate is a fictitious business name for Fort Baker Retreat Subtenant, LLC, a California limited liability company.

Cavallo Point – the Lodge at the Golden Gate is managed by Passport-Ft. Baker Management LLC, which is an affiliate of Passport Resorts LLC. For more information on Passport Resorts LLC and other properties managed by its affiliates, please visit www.passportresorts.com

How we came to be
Originally inhabited by the coastal Miwok tribes, Horseshoe Cove became home to Fort Baker long before there was a Golden Gate Bridge. In 1866, the U.S. Army acquired the site for a military base to fortify the north side of the Golden Gate. The 24 buildings around the 10-acre parade ground at Fort Baker took shape between 1901 and 1915. The Army post remained active through World War II.

From Post to Park
In 1973 Fort Baker was listed as a Historic District in the National Register of Historic Places. When the Golden Gate National Parks were established in 1972, Fort Baker was designated for transfer to the National Park Service when no longer needed by the military. In 2002 Fort Baker transferred officially from post to park.

School buses have a great track record when it comes to safety. In fact, according to the National Association for Pupil Transportation, school buses are the safest mode of transportation to and from school. However, a bus stop on a busy morning can be a chaotic place. That’s why Jenna Bush Hager has teamed up with the Propane Education & Research Council to provide a timely reminder of the importance of school bus safety and the need for more energy-efficient buses.

As a former teacher and mother of two, Jenna says the safety of children is always on her mind. So on September 7th, the daughter of our former president and TV host will share some timely safety tips and information about the benefits that many schools enjoy that have school buses powered by propane.
