About Dublin

Dublin has long been known as the Crossroads of the Bay Area. Dublin now sits at the crossroads of two major highways: Interstate 580 and Interstate 680. However, the significance of the crossroads dates back more than 200 years when Dublin served as the crossroads of two important stage routes - one from the Bay Area to Stockton and the other from Martinez to San Jose. The Alamilla Spring, located in the Dublin area, provided a place for travelers to change horses and freshen up before continuing their journey. Dublin has a rich history dating back to 1772 when Pedro Fages led an expedition of 16 mounted men on a journey in search of a land route to Drake's Bay, now known as San Francisco Bay. Their return journey brought them through the Amador Valley.

The City of Dublin is committed to encouraging physical health and mental well-being, while providing a fun and safe community environment through its various sports programs. To that end, the Parks and Community Services Department offers a wide range of athletic activities and leagues for our residents.

Our city takes great pride in its many wonderful parks and sports facilities. Dublin currently features over 20 neighborhood and community parks, sports fields, and open space areas for hiking or biking. As new neighborhoods begin to flourish, additional parks will be built to meet the needs of local residents. Our community parks include amenities such as bocce ball courts, children's play equipment, open space for informal play or sports activities, picnic areas, sports fields and courts, and trails.

The Dublin Unified School District mission is to educate every student to become a lifelong learner by providing a safe and supportive environment that fosters collective responsibility for each student's success.
