Who We Are

The Sunnyside Park Citizens Coalition (SPCC) is a volunteer-led team dedicated to raising awareness about the need for adequate park space in Los Osos and to sponsoring a citizens’ initiative for the June 2, 2026 election that will fund the acquisition, maintenance, and operation of a second community park, Sunnyside Park, the first expansion in fifty years.
