Community News
We Want Your Feedback - Dog Park at Freedom Park!
North Highlands Recreation & Park District is exploring the potential for a future dog park in our community. At this time, we are conducting research only to better understand interest, needs, and preferences from residents.
This survey is intended to gather feedback and assess community support. It does not represent an approved project, funded plan, or confirmed development. Your input will help guide future discussions and determine whether pursuing a dog park is something the community would like us to explore further.
We appreciate you taking a few minutes to share your thoughts and help us make informed decisions for North Highlands!
New Playground at Karl Rosario Park!
Pardon our dust, a new playground is going in at Karl Rosario Park. Due to weather, construction has been delayed and is expected to start this month. While the construction is happening, the basketball court and gazebo will be open. Check out the image below to see what you can expect!
Freedom Park Pavilion Rentals
Freedom Park Pavilion rentals are almost available! Picnic sites are available to rent Sunday - Saturday beginning the first weekend in March. This location is excellent for a birthday party, family reunion, company picnic, or any social event that calls for some fun in the park. For further information, and to reserve a pavilion, please check out our website: www.nhrpd.org/freedom-park-pavilion-rentals
