For Immediate Release

Menlo Park – San Mateo County Parks boasts many jewels: Memorial amid the redwoods, Coyote Point overlooking the bay, Devil’s Slide perched hard on the edge of North America.

Now add Flood Park to the crown.

Flood is poised to become a destination of its own thanks to a multi-year renovation that reimagines the 21-acre site with something for everyone. 

How about sand volleyball, pickleball, tennis and basketball courts? Check. Walk, ride or glide under shady oaks? Check.

Play on multi-use fields, take a spin on a pump track and enjoy a leisurely get together at new picnic tables next to custom charcoal barbecues? Let the kids explore (and climb on) fallen trees and hunt for insects among oak woodland? Check.

Check it all out this Saturday, June 7, at the opening of new features and the groundbreaking for a new playground. The free and fun festivities begin at 10 a.m. at 215 Bay Road, Menlo Park.
