The Village Heritage Walk

To celebrate the 80th anniversary of the San Lorenzo Village Homes Association, we will be creating The Village Heritage Walk, on the path between the SLVHA Hall and the San Lorenzo Library.

The Village Heritage Walk isn’t just about laying bricks; it’s about weaving together the stories, experiences, and memories that make San Lorenzo Village a place like no other. It’s a testament to the enduring sense of community and belonging that defines this cherished neighborhood. As we celebrate 80 years of San Lorenzo Village, let us embrace this opportunity to leave our mark and shape the future of our beloved community. Together, let’s pave the way for generations to come, one brick at a time.

To place an order please click the image below for an order form that you can fill out; send the completed form and payment to the SLVHA office.

CHP: Report Sideshows

The Hayward CHP office is ramping up enforcement efforts in 2023, in response to an uptick in sideshow and reckless driving, occurring throughout Alameda County. Sideshow activities such as donuts and ghost riding are reckless, unsafe, and unlawful and pose an extreme danger to those participating in the activity, and to other motorists and bystanders.

If you have information about upcoming sideshows, street racing or have identified ongoing traffic concerns in your neighborhoods throughout unincorporated western Alameda County (Fairview, Castro Valley, San Lorenzo, Ashland, and Cherryland), please email 345recklessdriving@chp.ca.gov or call (510) 901-0373. This number is for NON-EMERGENCY calls.

9-1-1 is still to be used to report life-or-death emergencies in progress.
