Beginning on Oct. 2, 2023, Prado Regional Park will be going through a phased turf renovation project as part of the Countywide Vision to build a sustainable system of recreation that complements our natural resources and environment. During the seeding process, irrigation timers will be set to run about four times per day in each section.

As the project progresses through the park (see map), the last area to be seeded will be the playground area, scheduled to begin by the end of 2023 once construction on the new playground is completed.

While park day usage is not restricted, please be aware that the sprinklers are scheduled to run throughout the day and evening. Onsite park staff will be able to assist with any questions or concerns.
