Robertson Park Master Plan information

Contains group picnic area, picnic tables, soccer fields, riding arenas/stadium, horse trails, hiking/bicycle trails, restrooms, horseshoe pits and softball areas.

77 acres were purchased from the Tobin family, who asked that the park be named for their relative, Dr. John Robertson, an early Livermore physician and founder of the Livermore Sanitarium (College Avenue and L St.).

In 1967 LARPD used $250,000 from the city to buy 12 more acres from the Calderia Family to provide high ground for the rodeo stadium (replacing the condemned facility on Pacific Avenue).

In the early 1980s the Livermore Valley Rotary Club helped LARPD and the Rodeo Association provide stadium night lights.

The park grew to its current size with land from the City of Livermore and from two small acquisitions.

The 1987 passage of Proposition G, the Gann tax override measure, provided the $2.2 million to build the soccer complex on the southeast side. It opened September 1993.

The $207,000 Equestrian Center Phase I was dedicated Oct. 30, 1993.

LARPD and the City of Livermore opened their joint-Maintenance Service Center on the park's northeast side on Oct. 27, 1992. LARPD paid 38 percent of the $7.8 million cost and the City of Livermore paid 62 percent - based on percentage of use of the 52,400-square-foot facility.

The two softball fields at the corner of South Livermore Avenue and Concannon Boulevard were named for former LARPD Board Member Ernie Rodrigues on May 17, 2003. Rodrigues served on the board for 24 years (1976-92, 1994-2002).
