Bill Drake is from Friends of Sierra Rock Art (FSRA). FSRA was co-founded in 1990 by Bill after he discovered a large petroglyph site in the Sierra foothills dating from approximately 2000 BC to 500 AD.
At the time, many rock imagery sites had little protection and no organized public voice advocating for their preservation.
What began as a small local effort grew into a committed volunteer organization focused on education, stewardship, and long-term conservation.
