RANCHO CORDOVA, CA (MPG) – The Cordova Recreation & Park District’s (District) Community Engagement Program is underway! The Community Engagement Program, spearheaded by District General Manager Patrick Larkin, is a quarterly program that focuses on giving back to the community.

During this quarter, the District collaborated with the Folsom Cordova Unified School District (FCUSD) Homeless Student Services. FCUSD Homeless Student Services helps ensure homeless children have an equal opportunity to obtain a high quality education and provides resources to families.  Throughout the quarter, District staff and Board of Directors contributed various Target gift cards. On December 17, 2021, District staff presented FCUSD with donations totaling $940 to be used for new shoes and clothing.

“I’m proud of our generous and caring CRPD staff for their continued support for the unhoused students in Rancho Cordova. Many of the CRPD staff are residents of Rancho Cordova so this opportunity to work with FCUSD for the students in need has special meaning,” said Larkin.  “We look forward to more opportunities to work in partnership with FCUSD to make the community stronger and to meet the needs of our most vulnerable youth.”

CRPD is proud to collaborate with FCUSD Homeless Student Services to help support local students.

Cordova Recreation & Park District is one of the largest independent special districts in Northern California serving over 130,000 residents and four school districts in the greater Sacramento area. CRPD provides over 42 parks and recreational facilities, a full-service 18-Hole course at Cordova Golf Course, as well as youth & adult sports, camps, enrichment classes, educational programs and special events for the community.
