Easter Fun in County Parks


Easter Fun in County Parks

Sacramento County’s popular Regional Parks will be busy with extra visitors this Easter Weekend. To keep the holiday safe and enjoyable, Regional Parks would like to remind visitors of the following rules put in place on Apr. 20 and 21:

Entrance Fees
To offset the costs of extra patrol and maintenance, the vehicle entrance fee will increase to $8 for single vehicles and $13 for oversized vehicles and vehicles towing watercraft. 
This fee increase does not affect Annual Parks Pass holders. 

River Safety
With the rivers flowing fast with ice-cold water, everyone is urged to wear a life vest regardless of swimming skill level – after all, “Life Looks Good on You.” However, it is the law that children under 13 must wear a life preserver at all times in public waterways in the County.

Park Closures
With rivers running high, several parks are still experiencing flooding conditions. Be sure to check out the Park Status page ensure your favorite park is open before heading out.
