The Track Doesn’t Maintain Itself

~8 people

do almost all the work & pay most of the bills

City of Torrance does NOT maintain the track.
Your Donations DO

Most drivers

don’t know the track needs their support

  • Track grooming & watering
  • Fence & stand repairs
  • Materials & tools
  • Paid help when volunteers can’t cover it

It adds up every single month

A few bucks from everyone keeps El Nido alive for all of us.

Suggested: $5 per visit (or whatever you can)
