A Plan for Community and Beyond

​

As part of El Dorado County's array of recreational public assets, Forebay Community Park encompasses 12 beautiful acres. Pollock Pines Playground will occupy 2 acres and provide recreation, an outdoor venue for families and community gatherings, and a historic element to celebrate the region's colorful past. 

​

The desired design that the "Pollock Pines Playground People", a grass roots, community minded group of volunteers, has proposed to the county for consideration was created with accessibility in mind for all young visitors, including those with physical disabilities, and the safety of elder residents with mobility concerns. At the same time, Pollock Pines Playground will provide the space, equipment, and natural resources to satisfy the most active members of communities throughout the greater region.

 The project is truly rooted in the community. 

Throughout the design and development of the Pollock Pines Playground hundreds of volunteers spent countless hours dedicated to creating a landmark asset for the entire region. Volunteers got busy trimming, clearing, and cleaning up the site to make the area safe and secure for future visitors. Area businesses have also taken a keen interest in supporting the development of the Pollock Pines Playground with labor, equipment, and donations.

​

The unique facilities and concept will make a truly regional resource for families and individuals throughout El Dorado County. We invite you to read further to learn more about the future holds for the Pollock Pines Playground and all it offers.
