Ernie Smith Community Park

Sonoma County Regional ParksThe park is named after Ernest Maynard “Ernie” Smith, one of the pioneers in live sports announcing from the mid-1920’s into the 1950’s.

Ernie’s enthusiastic, detailed descriptions earned him a loyal following, and his highly recognizable voice could be heard in homes, backyards and gas stations throughout the Bay Area.

The park provides an athletic field for little league and softball, children’s play area, 1/2 acre dog park with picnic tables and a pet drinking fountain, wheelchair-accessible group picnic area, and a paved trail.

Dogs must be on leash, with the exception of the designated off-leash dog park. Please pick up after your dogs. Please check the website for current hours.
