New Entry Kiosk, Renovated Tennis Center Next in EPIC! Campaign

We’re making improvements, thanks to donations to the Elings Park Infrastructure Campaign (EPIC!).

You see them throughout the park: from the newly landscaped main entrance, repaved roads and parking lots, to the hand-built sandstone walls and plantings of California oaks and other native plants.

Not to overlook something of vital importance to every visitor: renovated “touchless” bathrooms. Our four-legged visitors give “two-paws-up” to the new warm-water dog washing station.

Next up: renovation of the Los Positas Tennis Center, a new kiosk at the entrance, and the reactivation of a historic water well.

We’re more than half-way to our $10 million EPIC! fundraising goal. Help us make it to the finish line with a tax-deductible donation.
