Sponsor a Tree at Ryan Bonaminio Park at the Tequesquite Arroyo
The Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department, in collaboration with the Riverside Community Services Foundation, is coordinating a “Sponsor a Tree” campaign to dedicate newly planted trees at Ryan Bonaminio Park at the Tequesquite Arroyo located at 5000 Tequesquite Avenue, Riverside, CA.
These trees will provide esthetic value, shade from the sun and life sustaining oxygen, decrease noise and will enhance civic pride. Whatever the occasion, there couldn't be a better way to show how much you care.
In recognition of your generous gift, you will receive a certificate of sponsorship and the donor’s name will be engraved on a granite plaque located in the regal courtyard of Ryan Bonaminio Park at the Tequesquite Arroyo, which will be unveiled at the Grand Opening Ceremony on Saturday, June 29 at 4 p.m.
To obtain an application, visit the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department at 6927 Magnolia Ave., Second floor, 92506, your local community center or download an application online at www.riversideca.gov/park_rec.
Applications with $300 sponsorship must be received before Friday, June 7, in order to meet the engraving deadline for the Saturday, June 29 Grand Opening Ceremony.
