What is Rancho Park Online?

Every community deserves a voice.

With RanchoPark Online.com, residents, business people and others who care about this neighborhood have the ability to decide what's the news. It's a social network, like Facebook, but centered on Rancho Park. If you care about Rancho Park, you can join now.

 

How Does it Work?

 
As with other social networks, each member creates his or her own individual page. You can submit an event about authors visiting Children's Book World, rave about your favorite cocktail at Westside Tavern, post a video from one of those doggie agility courses in the park, or whatever information is near and dear to you in this great neighborhood of ours.
Content from those pages, as well as Rancho Park-related information from other blogs, news sites and community groups will be featured on the main RanchoPark Online.com page as well.
Think of it as an online hub for all things Rancho Park. Instead of having to go to individual sites to get information about Rancho Park, we are gathering it for  you, and with you.
Why get Involved?
 
While you share, educate and inform, you will also learn: The MTA expects to have a light rail running along our stretch of Exposition Blvd by 2015; the Apple Pan has been serving it's classic burgers, sandwiches and pie for nearly 65 years;  and you'll discover any number of other notable eccentricities that make this place where you live, work or play lovable and unique.

This process creates informed citizens, which is one step closer to active citizens.

Here in Rancho Park, our diverse voices have at least one thing in common - we care about our community. By forming a cooperative, our united voice is more accurate, more current and more representative than just one individual.

That's the power of community.

Welcome to Rancho Park Online. Welcome to Rancho Park.
Get involved!
Who Started Rancho Park Online?

 

RPO was begun by Orli Belman and Eddie North-Hager. We are two former journalists who met working in public relations. We share a vision for what a community-centered social network can be, a passion for civic engagement, a desire to see our respective neighborhoods thrive... and a sense of fun and adventure as we get to explore and expose people to our communities, both online and off. We welcome you on this journey with us.

"Please track and report on the number of accidents with bikes after the lanes go in. It's the least you can do after advocating for them. It's about time that riders using our streets start carrying insurance. If they don't own a car…"

"@michael I mean I wouldn't kick them out because they've been there so long , like the big guy who's usually around the westside pavilion, he's been there since I moved here ( 5 years ago) and maybe longer. "
