The LPCA is Looking Ahead to See What the Next Generation Brings

Neighborhood associations should reflect the values and culture of their community and Land Park is no exception! Our LPCA Board is focused on a simple mission statement: A commitment to enhancing the quality of life for William Land Regional Park and the surrounding neighborhood. We do this by:

• Advocating to protect and preserve William Land Regional Park.
• Raise community awareness and proactive solutions on issues affecting our neighborhood like road and park safety.
• Build relationships and collaborate with our elected officials to get things done.
• Support local entities, groups and projects that enhance life in Land Park.
• Host quarterly community meetings with great speakers to keep our neighbors informed.
• Offer events bringing the community together.
• Donate time and money to support local good works and projects.

That sounds like a lot, right? Well, ‘many hands make light work’ and our all-volunteer board takes that seriously. We remain focused on our mission.  But we are only as active as those who choose to join us. If you are a Land Park neighbor with more time on your hands, semi-retired, or have specific things you can contribute, contact us; board@landpark.org

The LPCA has existed for over forty years, and it’s time for the next generation to step up and keep our neighborhood voice moving in the right direction!

The March 5th LPCA Meeting was GREAT

The LPCA Community Meeting was very well attended. There was food and wine and wonderful community conversations. Neighbors left smiling and better informed.There are three more community meetings this year: June 4th, September 3rd and November 12th.  Meetings are at the Fairytale Town Children’s Theater. Doors open at 6pm and speakers begin at 6:30pm. We are not recording these meetings right now, so if you miss it, you miss it.

This month’s speakers were:

Del Rio Trail Sewer Rehabilitation Project – Learn where the trail will be closed while the work is being done.

Sacramento Zoo Leadership – Receive an update on the zoo’s expansion efforts and its status.

District 7 City Council  – Chief of Staff, Dennis Rogers will provide updates on a car-free space in the park and answer city questions about the zoo.

2026 Will Be a Good Year for Projects & Events!

Because of great partnerships and new friends, the LPCA was able to support and lead productive projects in 2025. We plan to keep the momentum going for 2026. Here are few things:

* Ensure we have a ‘seat at the table’ around the Sacramento Zoo expansion.

* Support more traffic safety projects for our neighborhood.

* Partner with our City Councilman Rick Jennings to provide more climate-friendly, car-free spaces in the park for families to ride bikes, skate and stroll in safety. 

* Continue working with local businesses, schools and groups who support good works in our community.

* Support our fantastic volunteer gardeners and the Land Park Volunteer Corps. with park beautification projects.

Events:

July 10^th – Jazz in the Park – in collaboration with Rick Jennings office.

TBA – Wine or other tasting event – the Whiskey Tasting was a success and we look forward to hosting something new this year.

December 6^th – Meet Santa – This very popular free family holiday event will be happening again at Land Park Golf Course.

This page will be updated with other events and projects soon.

Note: Unfortunately, there is no one on the board to lead and organize the Bunny on the Green event this year  We have a very pro-active LPCA board, and take on the projects and events our current team is able to manage.

Meet with D7 Chief of Staff and Get Answers

Struggling with a problem like a broken street light? Wondering why something isn’t being done about keeping the park ducks and geese from getting fishhooks in their mouths? Maybe you just want to know how you can learn more about what the city can do for Land Park?  You don’t need to schedule to meet with Rick Jennings’ office – just show up at 5 Sips Coffee on the third Wednesday at 5:00 pm and have a chat. Dennis Rogers, Rick’s Chief of Staff will be there to listen and provide his expertise to the problem.

LPCA Has Room to Grow

If you have the time and are ready to get involved, consider joining one of our committees or the LPCA board. We always appreciate neighbors with a collaborative team attitude and great follow-through! The LPCA board is as active as those who choose to join us. So, if you are wondering why we are not working on something in particular, it may be because a neighbor hasn’t stepped up to lead the way. Need some clarity on what we do?
