As of January 1, 1995, the Santa Cruz Island Foundation has actively
been searching for individuals who have spent time on all eight channel
islands. These rare individuals, with proof of their island visits
(photographs or witnesses), will be eligible for membership in the
Santa Cruz Island Foundation's "All Eight Club". Membership benefits
include an "All Eight Channel Islands" baseball hat along
