City of Union City Memorial Bench Program

Union City has many beautiful parks that are enjoyed by the community. The Community & Recreation Services Department has developed a Memorial Bench Program to provide an opportunity to recognize residents who have passed away, or to honor those who have made an impact in the community. Family and friends can join together to donate an attractive, personalized park bench in one of Union City parks to remember their loved one. The donation of a memorial bench includes the purchase and installation of the bench, an engraved plaque, as well as any needed site preparation by the Public Works Department.

If you are interested in the Memorial Bench Program, please contact the Union City Community & Recreation Services at (510)675-5495 or click on the link for the application.
