Picnic Anyone? Reserve Your Spot Today At Hagan Community Park

The rain may be coming down now, but soon spring will be arriving to greet us. Great spring weather attracts us to nature’s fresh air and sunlight, beckoning us to participate in refreshing outdoor activities. Rancho Cordova community parks offer many amenities to their park patrons for a fun and relaxing time out in the great outdoors. With friends and family being a focus of park attraction, what is better than having a picnic! If you are planning on having a large gathering, birthday party, company picnic or a family reunion barbecue, then you will benefit from reserving a picnic area in advance by contacting the CRPD office at (916) 362-1841.

Monday, March 2 marked the beginning date to reserve a picnic facility at Hagan Community Parkin Rancho Cordova. Daily picnic area fees depend on the particular section of the park; fees range from $45 to $85 and all picnic area reservations and payment must be made in person at the front office located at 2197 Chase Drive, Rancho Cordova. Unreserved picnic areas will still be available, but these areas will only be obtainable on a first come first basis. The CRPD refund policy requires at least a two week cancellation notice.

When you make a reservation, you will have that reserved area for the duration of the park day. Half day reservations are not permitted. Daily use is from sunrise to sunset and reservations can be made for any day of the week. Steven Lee, Account Clerk with Hagan Community Park, observes that weekends are the busiest days of the week for the park, therefore it is recommended that picnic reservations be made far in advance. barbecue pits are provided in picnic areas, but you are more than welcome to bring your own barbecue grill.

Along with a picnic facility reservation is the option for pre-paid parking permits for those attending your group function. Pre-paid group parking permits do not have to be purchased on reservation day but will require at least a three day notice to the CRPD office with the number of vehicles in your party. Advanced parking payment with a picnic reservation will be $2.00 per vehicle, otherwise parking fees will be $4.00 per vehicle. Parking entrance fees are in effect for the months of April through October. Parking fees are not being collected for the current month of March.

When it comes to the popularity of people reserving picnic areas, Lee says that it has varied by many factors in the past, such as the weather and holidays. He also said that he doesn’t think the current economy will affect picnic reservations.

Having a picnic is great way to catch up with others or to show your appreciation for your employees. The spring and summer seasons are quickly approaching, so why not take advantage of what Rancho Cordova’s Hagan Community Park has to offer?
