Since 1985, the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) has designated the month of July as Parks and Recreation Month. Now that summer has arrived, the Foster City Parks and Recreation Department encourages you to check out the many parks and recreation opportunities available for the entire family! Come enjoy participating in the many free special events, such as a Summer Concert, the weekly mobile food truck marketplace through Off the Grid, or the Community Bike Ride.
Join the Foster City Parks and Recreation Department's Summer Camp Staff for an afternoon of fun family games! All family members are welcomed and encouraged to participate in some of our favorite games like Potato Sack Races and a Watermelon Eating Contest. Join us in the Leo Ryan Park Meadow from 1:30pm-2:30pm!
We've combined two of our favorite 4th of July events, the Family Parade and the Dog Show, into one new exciting event! Decorate your wagons, bikes, and of course yourself with your best stars, stripes, and red, white, and blue for the annual 4th of July Parade. Registration is free for families and dogs. Contestants must be pre-registered prior to 4th of July. Registration Closes at 5pm July 3rd.
This event historically turns out a large crowd for the full day of activities and events. The community is encouraged to walk, bike, and carpool to the Fourth of July Celebration. There will be no shuttle service for this event.
Here are a few tips to help make your Fourth of July in Foster City a safe and enjoyable experience.
Personal Fireworks: The possession, use, and sale of fireworks of all types are illegal and prohibited in Foster City. Fireworks are subject to confiscation and violators may receive misdemeanor citations and subsequent prosecution. Fireworks, in spite of their patriotic association, cause injuries and fires. Please leave the pyrotechnics to the experts.
