Foothills Park is open to Palo Alto residents and their guests only. Proof of residency is required. Picnic Reservations - Individual picnic areas can be reserved in both Rinconada and Mitchell Parks. Every summer thousands of children from pre-schoolers to teens participate in a wide variety of one and two week summer day camps emphasizing themes from sports to science and nature. Campers enjoy skill development while making friends and having a great time.
Day care is available before and after the camp sessions.

Positive Alternatives for Youth provides employment and life skills counseling. Rate It Volunteer Opportunities - Community support through volunteerism and contributions provides help to enhance the enjoyment of our parks and to provide a greater range of programs, activities, and special events.
