Both are where individuals and families of all ethnicities, socio-economic status, and genders come to picnic, exercise, contemplate, celebrate. It is a spectacularly beautiful place. Elings Park is also a gentle and powerful community builder.
Please Help Support Your Local Elings Park – Where Admission Is Always Free
Help keep nature, health, and happiness accessible to all by giving to the Elings Park Foundation. The 60-year-old park asks for donations to complete $10 million EPIC capital campaign. Many improvements have been made. Still to be completed: refreshed park playgrounds, renovation of Las Positas Tennis Center, and upgrades to Godric Grove, the park’s wedding and events location. More than double your support with matching funds for Tennis Center and Godric Grove.
