THE COMMUNITY has come together under the leadership of Nick Catelli and Kent Gordon England to build a park at the corner of Geyserville Ave. and Highway 128 next to the old Post Office at 21030 Geyserville Ave, Geyserville, CA. Because it is an EPA cleanup site and the property is for sale, it is required that the improvements be temporary. The landlord has given his blessing and Nick Catelli has signed a lease with him for the land.
Ground breaking was Saturday, February 11th.
