A Story of Community and Legacy: El Cerrito Sports Park stands on a piece of land that has a significant backstory, one that includes the legacy of Roger E. Bacon. This area was developed following an eminent domain acquisition from the late Mr. Bacon. In recognition of this history, efforts have been made to honor his memory and the complexities of the park's development. Please visit www.RogerEBacon.com for more information.

Honoring Roger E. Bacon: A Memorial Bench
El Cerrito Sports Park has been a vital space for youth and families in our community. It's also a place with a complicated history — one that includes the forceful removal of Roger E. Bacon, a resident whose property was taken through eminent domain.
Our goal is to raise funds for a memorial bench dedicated in his name at El Cerrito Sports Park.
This bench will provide a serene spot for reflection, offering a place where friends, family, and community members can gather, remember Roger, and appreciate the surrounding beauty. It's our way of ensuring his influence continues to bring comfort and inspiration to our community for years to come.
