SHCP Community Design Charrette 2002
The Southern Humboldt Community Park is here for the community to use and enjoy. SHCP has become a hub for community activities. A variety of advocate groups have worked with the Park’s Board of Directors to establish community-driven projects on Park land. Many events including retreats, hobby clubs, weddings, memorials, meetings and fundraising events for many non-profit organizations regularly take place at the Park.
Community members or groups can utilize the park for a variety of different projects or activities. Those individuals or groups can propose a project to the Board of Directors for review. The individual or group is then solely responsible for all aspects of their project including planning, implementing, and maintaining their project. As a general rule, the Park itself does not implement projects. The Board of Directors is focused on acquisition of the land, providing basic infrastructure and Park administration.
Day Use and Group Events at the Park
There are no fees for ordinary everyday use of the park by individuals.
If you would like to host a group event at the Park, please note that there is a small day-use fee. These fees are used to help the park cover the additional costs incurred by group use. Those who cannot afford to pay will not be turned away for events like birthday parties and (no-alcohol) family gatherings.

(Recent events have led the board to establish a moratorium on all but the most modest low-impact activities until current uncertainties with regards to County zoning and permitting procedures can be resolved.)
