If anyone is looking for their black and white dog matching the one in the photos, it’s still there as of 7pm! According to other neighbors in the area who’ve seen it, it’s been here since yesterday evening but is still keeping close by in the Elliott Springs area. It keeps running away any time someone approaches so nobody could catch it.

There’s a Nextdoor post about this too but I figure I’d expand the search on Reddit too. Animal control has been called by multiple people already but they didn’t give any timelines.

I left some dog food and water for it in the area it was seen so hopefully it gets some. I’ll check on it in an hour.

What are folks' thoughts on the city developing some nice botanical gardens? I know the city tries to shoot for the stars with big projects like a mall, hospital, or zoo but it seems like that never materializes...would botanical gardens be lower cost, more realistic, and a quality public good for residents?

Hello,

I am a 32F looking to expand my social circle and make new friendsand hopefully we can be lifelong friends eventually. I think I am pretty introverted and socially awkward so I apologize in advance. I am not fit, in fact, I am quite lumpy like LSP! I started going to the gym and lifting weights and doing cardio. I am willing to try everything once. My interests are reading any fictional genre, I enjoy listening to music, I enjoy boardgames, trying to learn more about table top card games but that is quite confusing for me. I like coffee and tea.

I am a homebody and volunteering seems pretty cool but everything I apply, I don't hear back unfortunately 😔.

Nice to meet you and I hope we click!

what are the best neighborhoods to go trick or treating in the 916?? i'm looking to go with my bf and all his younger siblings. it's their first time trick or treating so i want it to be fun/special

Imk!!!

Really curious how Elk Grove PD would justify this one. This camera is scanning all license plates as you leave Kaiser Promenade? This is on Kaiser property, I believe maybe right on the line. But a very weird spot nonetheless

A stray has been hanging around my place for the past week or so and im looking for a forever home for it. It is extremely friendly to people and strangers, will even let us pick it up. I am personally of the belief it was abandoned here by its original owners as it very much gives off inside cat vibes and its very used to humans. Its not doing well outside unfortunately, its skinny and may be getting a little sick. Im not sure of the gender or if it is fixed. It looks to be about adult or perhaps late teenager aged. Black and very fluffy. I would bring it inside myself but I already have cats and they dont take to other cats well. SPCA Isnt being any help. Ive already asked around and all my neighbors don’t claim it. I am willing to drive it to you myself but I do ask for a payment of $20. I would prefer not to but this is simply to hopefully ward away people who would wish to harm it. If interested please contact me here or at 916-430-7072. Thank you.

Anyone know what's taking over that space? Suuuch a bummer Petco is leaving

I live in the Vineyard area, and am seeking to turn the “empty” field under the power lines across from the new Pat O’Brien Community Center into a community garden (as well as adding more pickleball courts).

Green - Pickleball Courts
Purple - Community Garden

With both personal boxes like Elk Grove’s Community Garden, a native pollinator garden and restoration site, as well as a “three sisters” style food forest on site, somewhat like the Three Sisters Garden or NorCal Resist’s Seeds of Solidarity Farm, to help feed our community.

Maybe to coincide with something like a “Farm-to-Fork Friday” family-friendly food truck event, to go with the selling/handing out of free food, compost, seeds, community, etc. Because why not 🤷‍♀️ I got nothing else to do, and think this would be a real gem for our community.

But haven’t heard anything back after emailing the Southgate Recreation Board of Supervisors 3 weeks ago, and don’t want to sit on what I think would be a good idea. So who else do I have to contact about making this happen? SMUD? Patrick Kennedy? Benjamin Netanyahu?

I’m not quite sure Southgate even owns this land, and/or if it’s part of Churchill Downs Community Park, but I believe it was part of a future expansion of the park, so I wanted to give them the first crack at it - but they don’t seem to be interested - and I still most definitely am.

So, if anyone could give me advice or help me make this happen, please do! Thank you for your time and consideration. My wallet, stomach, and carbon consciousness thank you 🙏

They seemed so successful. Anyone know what happened?

My Mom found a fawn frenchie around Harborside neighborhood yesterday. He is not neutered or chipped and is being well cared for. My mom cannot keep him. Please DM if you know anyone who lost a frenchie.

Hey everyone! I’m a 25 year old guy looking to connect with people who enjoy line dancing and swing dancing as much as I do!
I’m not really looking for anything romantic. I’d just love to meet some genuine, like minded people who enjoy getting out, having a good time, and improving their dancing skills together.
Whether you’re experienced or still learning, I’d love to find some people who can count on me to show up on the dance floor, just as I can count on them. I think dancing is so much more enjoyable when you’ve got good people to share it with!
Ultimately, I’m just looking to build some friendships, get better at dancing, and have a great time along the way. If that sounds like something you’d enjoy, feel free to reach out!

How much are you spending for groceries a month and for how many people? Hit and all time high in September- almost 900 for 2 people- and it's not slowing down.

Looking for recommendations for a private piano and guitar instructor for 2 kids. Lessons would take place at my home, located near I-5 on Elk Grove Blvd.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all — my wife and I are considering moving to Elk Grove/Sac to be closer to family. I’ve been visiting the area since I was a kid, but I’ve never lived anywhere but the Bay Area, so I’m not super familiar.

We love art museums/galleries, live music, and just having a nice downtown area to walk around. We’re looking forward to visiting the Crocker Museum and Concerts in the Park.

I’d love to hear about some of your favorite things to do/places to go. Thank you!

Any recommendations for a person that can do stuff around the house? Specifically, I need help with someone that can help repair/replace/move a couple of roof tiles. TIA.

Anyone know what was happening around Elk Grove Florin and Bond on 10/18/26?

I just saw a swarm of people and was just wondering if it was anything serious.

Edit: That’s right! Thanks everyone for the info. RIP Uncle Ore 🙏.

I got this old 83 supra I've been wanting to get decent night pics of but I dont know many spots near Elk grove. Id prefer areas that aren't too metropolitan as I dont have plates (BUT it is registered with a TOP) so cops especially in sac just love harassing me even though they cant ticket it.

With that said, any cool backroad locations or nice night viewpoints? Ive already taken some in front of the sac water tower, so not sure what else to put on the itinerary. Thanks

I’m moving my parents from Stockton to EG. They have established services with Sutter Gould there with Medicare/Medical. My dad has a host of health issues, hence moving in with me for care. It is so hard to navigate Medicare/medical system. Been on the phone all day with various groups and it leave me feeling deflated. The Sutter Medical group here isn’t taking new Medicare patient. It’s stressing me out trying to figure this out for continuity of care.

I guess what I’m asking is are there any suggestions for Medicare primary? For medi-cal, he can choose Molina and Anthem I think with Medicare coverage. Is Molina good? Trying to find a one stop shop such as primary/lab etc. Any advice is appreciated.

Thank you!

Looking for a way to play pickleball consistently with the same group of people and I came across the elk grove pickleball club: https://elkgrovepickleballclub.org

How is the club? Is it still active and what is the age group of people in the club? Any insight into it would be great!
