8/14/2026 Letter from the General Manager
Dear Cambrians,
We are pleased to announce that funding shortfall for the Cambria Skatepark Project is now no more. This important milestone was made possible through the generous support of an anonymous donor and the Cambria Community Council, which is providing the funding necessary to cover the project’s 15 percent construction contingency. We are deeply grateful for their commitment to Cambria’s youth and the broader community. The funds have been transferred to the Cambria Community Services District, and the CCSD Board of Directors has approved the construction agreement with Newton Construction. With funding secured and the agreement approved, the project will now move into the construction phase.
Newton Construction is expected to begin mobilizing on September 21, 2026, with a groundbreaking anticipated during the week of September 28.
This project has been years in the making and reflects the dedication, generosity, and persistence of many community members and organizations.
