On Friday, 3 May 2024 at 10 a.m. a new sign will be dedicated honoring the local individuals who were
instrumental in the creation of Catalina State Park. In 1983, Catalina State Park officially opened as an
oasis of riparian splendor centered around Cañada del Oro and Sutherland washes, and enjoyed by
thousands every year.

This dedication will acknowledge the local community members who worked hard to make the Park a reality and who have not been recognized until now.

When you come to the Park on May 3, tell the staff person at the gate that you are going to the
dedication and you will be able to drive into the Park without paying the entry fee.
