A Hike with History: Last month, about 40 people met at the Noe Valley Library to take a two-hour stroll through the neighborhood led by City Guides volunteer Calley Prezzano (pictured at left on 23rd Street). The walk, dubbed 'Noe Valley: A Village Within the City,' is part of City Guides' program of more than 75 city walking tours sponsored by the San Francisco Library and the non-profit Tides Center. The Noe Valley tour continues yearround on first and third Sundays, starting at 1 p.m. at 451 Jersey Street. The next one is May 17. The walks are free, but donations are appreciated.
