Rebuild Fort Natomas

November 4-9, 2008

Tragically on Monday, May 26, 2008 a devastating fire destroyed our beloved Fort Natomas playground. Due to the severe heat of the fire, all of the tiles on the playground side of the tile walls were damaged. We want your child’s art work as a permanent part of our rebuild celebration. Each tile can be uniquely decorated by you or your child such as imprints of a hand or foot print, write a poem, paint some original art or just fill it with silliness – whatever your imagination can design.

Dear friend of Fort Natomas

The Sacramento City Council has approved spending to rebuild a Natomas playground that burned down twice in the past two years.
In unanimously approving funding to rebuild the Fort Natomas playground, the council also chose to locate it in South Natomas Community Park rather than its previous home at Jefferson Park. The panel also approved $425,000 to develop a new plan and first-phase improvements for Jefferson Park.
Fire destroyed the huge Fort Natomas play structure on May 26. A 17-year-old boy who was arrested allegedly set the blaze to keep warm, authorities said.
