Norman Park
About Norman Park
A Community Space with History
Situated in Chula Vista, Norman Park spans a cozy 1.5 acres, named after Chet Norman, the city's first park supervisor. What started as the Chula Vista Library site transformed in 1963 with the construction of the Norman Park Center for Senior Citizens. Today, this center remains the heart of the park, hosting various senior activities and community gatherings.
What You'll Find There
The park has peaceful green spaces and picnic spots for a relaxing afternoon. Recent renovations have breathed new life into this local hangout.
One of the newer additions is an outdoor fitness area featuring low-impact exercise equipment. While particularly suitable for seniors and those with mobility challenges, these fitness stations are open for everyone to enjoy. No membership required - just show up and get moving!
You'll also find easily accessible restrooms across the park - a small detail that makes a big difference, especially for seniors and families with little ones.
Get Your Game On
Pickleball enthusiasts, rejoice! Pickleball courts installed in 2023 have quickly become a popular feature. The covered courts mean you can play regardless of what the California sun decides to do that day.
There's a nice schedule system in place: weekday mornings are reserved for seniors, while afternoons and Saturdays welcome players of all ages. It's a thoughtful way to ensure everyone gets court time.
A Space for Everyone
Norman Park provides a quiet place to simply relax. Families can spread out a blanket on the grass, seniors can chat on benches, and fitness fans can get in a workout.
With its blend of open areas, exercise equipment, and recreational facilities, the park attracts visitors across generations.
