Memorial Park (Assessed by Maria)


Memorial Park
24176 Mission Blvd

The moment I arrived at the park, I knew i was going to like it. Memorial Park is perfect for friends and families to gather. There are a total of ten picnic tables and two BBQ pits at the park; perfect for any family or social gathering. The park area is very spacious and calm. The large amount of shade provided at the park makes it very relaxing and perfect for the summer time. Also, the park is very maintained. The park also has a stage, two clean bathrooms, two BBQ pits, and a fence surrounding both play structures.  There is also a large tennis court for adults to play tennis at. If the park itself isn’t for you, there is a pool. Although there is a fee to enter the pool, it is very affordable for families. Overall, this is a very nice, clean park.
