The M*A*S*H commemoration was a wonderful time. Brian really outdid himself (if that's possible). The first wave of photos are up now. Go to the MASH Site area and click on 25th Anniversary. We had cast members William Christopher (Father Mulcahy), Mike Farrell (B.J. HUnnicut), Loretta Swit (Hot lips Houlihan), Roy Goldman (Roy Goldman), Jeff Maxwell (Igor Straminsky); and director Charles Dubin (directed the most episodes) and producers Burt Metcalfe and Gene Reynolds. Hundreds of fans participated along with senior State Park officials and the docents, who were, as usual, all over the place.

M*A*S*H FANS UNITE!!
Come celebrate the 25th anniversary of the finale of this legendary series at the historic outdoor set! On February 23rd, join hundreds (and maybe thousands) of your fellow fans at the newly restored set where M*A*S*H was shot for 11 years.
as it was then...Thousands visit the site every year, but on February 23rd, it will look better than it has in decades. The original tents and buildings were removed when filming ended in 1983, but decades of overgrowth have been cleared away, markers will show where the major tents stood, educational panels will display the layout of the camp, the helipad roadway will be open and the iconic signpost that pointed the way home for the characters has been rebuilt and will stand again at the site.
as it is now...Bring your friends and your camera for this fun FREE day!

Malibu Creek State Park
1925 Las Virgenes Road, CalabasasHow to get there:
From the beach: Take Pacific Coast Highway north / west to Malibu Cyn Road and turn right past Pepperdine University. In the canyon, you'll pass through a tunnel and go through one light (Piuma Road). Just before Mulholland Hwy, turn left into Malibu Creek State Park.
From the Valley: 101 north / west past Calabasas to Las Virgenes Road. Exit there and head south for several miles. The park entrance is the first right turn after Mulholland Hwy.
Parking is $10 per vehicle inside the state park, so carpool with friends.
It's a 35 minute hike to the M*A*S*H set from the parking lot (EZ maps will be handed out at the entry kiosk) over mostly level terrain with some rocky creek bed walking, so bring comfortable shoes, sun protection and water and enjoy. Baby strollers are not recommended.
Come and enjoy this fun day from California State Parks!
