Supporters who raised private funds to keep Northern California's largest state park open threatened Friday to scratch their agreement with the state and demand their money back if the state does not set aside at least $20 million of recently discovered hidden cash to keep parks open.

"We're furious. We feel we've been taken," said Winslow Briggs, a retired Stanford biology professor who is on the board of the Coe Park Preservation Fund. "Our little group spent 1 1/2 years raising money, apparently all for naught. What a waste."
