My name is Laura Garcia and I am a board member for the Calwa Recreation and Park District. Calwa isn’t just a park to me and my family.
Born & Raised in Calwa: I am the daughter of farmworker immigrants who came to this country looking for better opportunities and the 1st in my family to graduate from college. As a lifelong resident of Calwa, I understand our history and the value Calwa Park brings to our families in Southeast Fresno. I am asking for your support to represent you on the Calwa Recreation and Park District Board. My

Last week, Calwa Park broke ground on more than just a renovation, we broke ground on a dream, years in the making. 🌱
From a brand-new playground to shaded picnic areas, walking trails, and an outdoor fitness zone, our park’s renovation will be transformational for our families, our youth, and generations to come.
Thanks to Fresno Building Healthy Communities and Dr. Joaquin Arambula, this $6.6 million investment in Calwa Park is rooted in community, love, and the belief that every neighborhood deserves beautiful spaces to gather, play, and thrive.
To everyone who shared their voice, their vision, and their trust - thank you. Let’s keep building the future Calwa deserves 🌳🚀
Thanks again Fresno City Womens Soccer for coming out to our futsal court’s grand opening!

This weekend, we planted the seeds of hope at Calwa Park! Our futsal court symbolizes more than just a new place to play, it’s a renewed commitment to our children and families of the bright future in store for Calwa Park. I’m proud to say this is just the beginning! With a transformational project coming soon, we are investing in a park that will continue to nurture our community for generations to come. Calwa Park is home, and together, we will continue to make it a place we’re all proud of.

Merry Christmas Calwa!🎄❄️
Last Friday, we hosted our 3rd Annual Calwa Winter Wonderland filled with hot chocolate, pan dulce, and pictures with Santa Claus. We were able to spread holiday cheer with new toys to over 300 children! 🎁 🧸
Thank you to all of our incredible partners and staff who helped make our kids Christmas more merry and bright. ¡Felices Fiestas!
I had a great time volunteering today at Calwa Park! Families were able to receive free health screenings, vaccinations, groceries, and more. Thank you to all of the community partners and Assemblymember Dr. Joaquin Arambula’s office for hosting your resource fair here at our park!
