In 1977, Mr. Pinkney co-chaired the committee that established TegnerPark.  Mr. Pinkney was a member of the Turlock Lions Club for 20 years and in 1980 as Mayor, he led the Turlock Lions Club in the construction of the concession stand at TegnerPark.  In January 1982, Mr. Pinkney officially dedicated TegnerPark to Atch Pedretti and renamed the park ‘AtchPedrettiPark’.  
 
Mr. Pinkney served as the President of the Turlock Chamber of Commerce for two years.  In 1964, Mr. Pinkney was involved in the planting of 100 trees at DonnellyPark when there were no trees at DonnellyPark.  In 2008, Mr. Pinkney and family purchased and participated in the City of Turlock’s Centennial Tree Planting Celebration at CentennialPark.
