The improved system, offered by Ticketron, which has contracted with the Department to handle campsite reservations, will shorten the time lag between reserving and occupying the campsite. Under the new setup, which becomes effective Monday, February 28, State Park campers will have until Monday of a week to reserve a campsite beginning Friday of that same week, Under the previous setup, campers had until Tuesday of a week to make a reservation for the period beginning the following Sunday. This meant that on Tuesday, a reservation could not be made for Friday and Saturday nights of that same week. Campsite reservations may be made up to 90 days in advance, Ticketron operates some 160 outlets around the state where reservations can be made for 7,000 campsites in some 90 campgrounds in 70 State Park units throughout the State. Ticketron also provides res+ ervation services for Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument in San Luis Obispo County. There is no cutoff date for reserving a tour at the Castle. A person can reserve a tour on the same day he plans to take it, provided there is a reservation available and the person can get to the castle from where he makes the reservation in time to take the tour. ~ In 1971, the first full year of operation in State Parks, Ticketron computerized reservation system was used by over 100,000 families who reserved over 300,000 nights of camping. Another 640,000 people used the service to reserve tours at Hearst Castle. For the location of the terminal nearest you, call (213) 878-2211 in Los Angeles; (714) 427-5133 in San Diego; (415) 563-4622 in San Francisco; and (916) 445-8828 in Sacramento. KK SACRAMENTO--The State Department of General Services will take over administration of Squaw Valley State Recreation Area March 4, the Department of Parks and Recreation reported today. The change in management was authorized by the 1971 Legislature. Squaw Valley was acquired by the State in 1958 and developed to host the VIll Winter Olympic Games in 1960, Following the games, the area was turned over to the State Department of Parks and Recreation, Most of the facilities at Squaw Valley are operated by concessionaires under contract with the State. It is a‘year around recreation area featuring snow sports in the winter and outdoor summer activities. Visitor attendance in 1970-71 was nearly 700,C00. The passage of a law by the Department of Parks and Recreation 1967 Legislature ordered theState to divest itself of all its rights, title, interest, and obligations in or to the Squaw Valley SRA. Since then, Parks and Recreation has exchanged lands with the U.S, Forest Service to obtain addition acreage in the valley, and last year asked for bids on the area, There was no successful bidder, and since then, the State had negotiated with several parties over sale of the area. The work of carrying out the 1967 law (Chapter 1251) will become the responsibility of the Department of General Services when it assumes management of the area, Skiers and summer outdoor enthusiasts will have the same recreation opportunities there after March 4 as in the past. However, the unit will no longer be a part of the State Park System. RK SACRAMENTO--The State Department of Parks and Recreation will ask the Sonoma City Council to overrule the recent Planning Commission approval of a proposed 125-unit townhouse development on the Montini property adjoining the Vallejo Home, a part of Sonoma State Historic Park. The council willxconsider the matter at its February 28 meeting. William Penn Mott, Jr., Director of Parks and Recreation, said the property is important to the future development of the park to provide for restoration of the historical vineyards. and orchards planted by . General Vallejo. "It is also needed to retain the historic scent that would be lost forever if the townhouse development were allowed." Mott said he plans to develop that part of the Montini property not necessary for historic purposes as a day use area for ‘picnicking and relaxing for the historic park visitors. '"This would tie together the Plaza Unit of the State Historic Park and the city's proposed "Oid Sonoma Depot"' park as a major tourist attraction." The Department, Mott said, is preparing a supplemental budget proposal for 1972-73 for acquisition of parcels of land around the Vallejo home. These include 12 acres on the east side of the home, 16 acres to the west, and about 2.6 acres behing the home. "The State Historic Park had an attendance of 146, 766 in ~1970-71", Mott noted. "These visitors contributed substantially to the economic well being of the community, and with the realization of the full potential of the State Park, I am certain that the City of Sonoma will gain far more than if the property were to be developed as a townhouse unit."
