ORANGEVALE, CA (MPG) – Orangevale History Project invites members of the community to participate in the annual tour of the Stone Corral Park managed by the Sacramento County Regional Parks at 9 a.m. to noon April 18. In case of rain, the event will be held on April 22.

In addition to its cultural significance, the park features a variety of seasonal wildflowers and is home to numerous native animal species that may be observed during the guided hike.  

Did you play or ride your horse at Stone Corral Park when you were a teenager? Orangevale History Project hears many stories of summer days spent there. This is an opportunity to see the difference between the park then and now.

This annual tour offers a unique opportunity to explore and appreciate the natural beauty and rich cultural history of Stone Corral Park. People who have attended are excited about being able to view the area and many attend year after year.
