Cesar Chavez Park opened grandly April 17 with an architectural and musical dedication honoring its namesake, the famous civil rights activist and labor organizer for the farm worker. The site is on a fifth acre lot on 7th Avenue South and South Cloverdale Street in South Park.
Mariachi music trumped the drizzle as band members played to the performance of Concord Elementary School dancers and young members from El Centro de la Raza holding photos of Chavez chanting “Si se puede” or “Yes we can.” The Beacon Hill organization promotes self-esteem and connectedness to family and culture recognition and social justice in all communities.”*
