It Took A Village to Make A Park in Elk Grove CA

Elk Grove CA Morse Park SpraygroundNeighbors in Elk Grove CA will be celebrating the GRAND Opening of the fruit of their labor, Morse Community Park on August 16, 2008

Even though this area has been hit hard with real estate foreclosures and short sales, along with declining revenue to build parks in these new neighborhoods, Morse Community Park is a true testament of neighbors who care.

These homeowners got together, got the community to help by donating money,time and labor along with CSD to build what is a first in Elk Grove parks.

Morse Community Park offers “spray-ground” water area, bocce ball courts, skateboard area, tot play area with shaded areas, outdoor fitness equipment, restrooms, seating for 100 under a shaded structure plus more to come.  There’s even little teaching areas about the butterfly along the path.

I understand that soccer and baseball fields, dog park and a future community center will all be built on this 30 acre park that has been the sweat and dreams for these neighbors.  Come take a tour of Morse Park and check out the video I took after showing new home buyers houses for sale in Elk Grove this weekend.

For just $10 you can donate a tile for a sea themed mural that will decorate some of the retaining walls. Just call 714–3225 before Sept. 1, 2008 and get yours personalized or visit I Made It! Be a part of a community building on the future of tomorrow. Come on by and see for yourself why this park is so special at Bellaterra Drive and Landview Drive in Elk Grove, CA.

Help support those that went out of their way in this hard economy by helping these volunteers see a dream come true. Here is a list of those who contributed. Now, you can help by supporting these businesses in Elk Grove:

Saturday, August 16th is the official grand opening of Morse Park with the Mayor of Elk Grove, Gary Davis, CSD, groups and various sponsors presiding.

    It’s always nice to see a community band together and do something nice like build a park. Hopefully they will enjoy it for many years to come!

    I can’t wait to see how the park looks when they get all 30 acres finished. The day I was there, the kids were enjoying themselves before the official opening.

    It’s so nice to see a community come together for something so worthwhile, our kids!
