The lease for Riverview Recreation Park (home of the Koroneburg Renaissance Village) located at 14600 Baron Drive in Eastvale is coming up for renewal in August of 2025 and Riverside County Parks and Open-Spaces District has not confirmed whether it intends to renew.

If the lease is not renewed then the residents of Riverside County and the greater areas of Southern California will lose the only permanent Renaissance Village in California.

We urge the Riverside County Board of Supervisors, the District Advisory Commission of the Riverside County Regional Park and Open-Space District ("RivCo Parks"), and the executive staff of RivCo Parks to:

Renew the lease with Riverview Recreation Park LLC ("RRP") to ensure the continuation of these valuable community events:

• The Koroneburg Renaissance Festival
  
  
• The Knights of the Fabled Reader Program
  
  
• Weddings, receptions, drive-in movies, and LARP events
  
  
• Filming for television and cinema
  
  
• The Halloween Coffin Creek event
