AUGGIE, Town Mascot

If you’ve ever driven down Diablo Road, you've come across our Town’s giant oak tree. But did you know that our Town's fun-loving mascot, Auggie, calls that grand tree home?

After having fallen from a mighty branch, Auggie was scooped up by a squirrel and then met a raven; together, they explored the Town. After experiencing Music in the Park, a summer in the pool, fun excursions, and countless other classes and activities, Auggie decided to stick around for good. With Auggie’s exceptional ability to connect the Town residents with programs and events, Auggie was thrilled to take on the role of ambassador for all the fun activities happening around Town.

In a nutshell, Auggie is the heart and soul of what makes Danville fun. While Auggie has only been here a few short years, his roots here are strong, and we couldn't imagine Danville without our favorite acorn. Thank you for all you do, Auggie!
