Visitors to the North Etiwanda Preserve will now see clearer, more accurate, and more welcoming information throughout the site. Special Districts recently completed a full changeout of more than fifty signs across the Preserve to improve the visitor experience and protect the integrity of the cultural and natural resources in the area.
Many of the original signs had faded over time, and several had been vandalized with carved markings. The new signs restore the quality and appearance of the interpretive program and provide information that is easier to read and more visually engaging.
Special Districts partnered closely with the Yuhaaviatam Tribe of the San Manuel Nation to refine interpretive content. Tribal representatives helped rewrite several descriptions to ensure they reflect accurate cultural knowledge and historical context. They also assisted in selecting updated images that better represent the region’s heritage and landscape.
The project also included updated County branding and refreshed logos for partner agencies to meet current standards. Teams completed the full replacement effort over a two day period with no impact to public access.
The new signs offer clearer information, improved visuals, and a stronger connection to the cultural story of the land. They support responsible recreation and help preserve the character of the Preserve for the community and future generations.
