Why Attend?
All proceeds from the event will directly support key improvements to Buchanan Park - proceeds will be split evenly between the Adventure Playground, Skatepark, and Stage/Pavilion. These enhancements are part of a bold vision inspired by 30 years of community support and EPRD's recent strategic planning efforts.

Your Impact:
By attending, you're helping us create a more vibrant, inclusive, and dynamic space for people of all ages to gather, play, and perform. Every ticket sold and every bid placed brings us closer to bringing these exciting new concepts to life.

This event is hosted by our fundraising partners:

Text "Hops Drops" with stylized letters and a hop-shaped design.

Text "evergreen skatepark coalition" with a skateboard graphic underneath.

In response to 30 years of community support and what we learned during recent strategic planning, EPRD is now creating concepts for improvements to our 42-acre Buchanan Park. Below are some of the initial concepts for the adventure playground, skatepark, and pavilion/stage that proceeds from this fundraiser will go towards!

A skatepark with ramps and rails, surrounded by trees and parking area.

Buchanan Park improvements plan featuring an inclusive adventure play area with multiple attractions, maps, and visuals.

Let’s come together to build something lasting for generations to come. Buy your tickets today and be part of the transformation!
