916 Day

On September 13, the Sacramento City Council will declare September 16, 2022 as “916 Day.”

This city proclamation is spearheaded by the City of Sacramento Parks and Community Enrichment Commission to urge all Sacramentens to celebrate city parks as the cornerstone of the 916 Community.

Park Commissioners will host a series of beautification and service events across the City to promote volunteerism and partnerships at parks and green spaces to highlight how parks create a healthy, strong, and thriving community. The Parks Commissioners aim to recruit and bring together 916 volunteers across these events and enact “916 Day” events every year.

Get involved at one or more events including park clean up, tree planting, and mulching! Thank you for helping to keep Sacramento beautiful.
