Memorial Benches and Picnic Tables

Memorial Benches and Picnic Tables are a beautiful way to acknowledge and celebrate the life and legacy of a departed loved one.  The Alameda Recreation and Park Department is able to assist you with your bench and picnic table request. 
We will make every effort to accommodate location requests, however, please keep in mind that there are other maintenance and use factors to consider.  There are no more locations available for bench requests at Franklin and McKinley Parks.  However, we are accepting Memorial Picnic Table requests at McKinley Park.
A Park Staff Member will meet with you to determine the exact location prior to final installation.  It can take up to 6 to 8 weeks for ordering, shipping and installing benches/picnic tables.  Please note that concrete benches and tables come with minor imperfections.
