Join us for our 3rd Annual Summer Soiree at at Veggielution, located at the back of Emma Prusch Farm Park at 647 South King Road. We have previously held the event at the Tea House in Kelley Park, but recent flooding damaged it and we have moved to this new venue.
Delicious Hors D'oeuvres, wine, and dessert will be served, accompanied by a unique conversational gathering just as summer begins.
We will be honoring the heroes of the truly amazing Flood Response Team of San Jose's Department of Parks Recreation & Neighborhood Services (PRNS). During the flooding emergency that took place early this year, PRNS Staff helped save animals from flooding at Happy Hollow Park & Zoo, evade many of the Koi at the Japanese Friendship Garden and opened Community Centers as temporary shelters for people tragically displaced from their homes.
Sponsored by Vice Mayor Magdalena Carrasco, Councilmember Donald Rocha, Councilmember Raul Peralez, CouncilmemberTam Nguyen, Councilmember Chappie Jones, Trademark Staffing, Kathy Sutherland, John & Marisol Leyba, The Mary Laurene Reber Trust and Jean-Marie White.
In our very brief history San Jose Parks Foundation has had a significant impact on our community - building new playgrounds, engaging thousands of volunteers, doing valuable environmental work and supporting a variety of community organizations. This event is a major way we fund our ongoing operations.
