About Independence Park

Recreational Facilities

Independence Park has something for everyone when it comes to getting active. The Janet Evans Swim Complex features a refreshing outdoor pool where you can cool off and splash around during those warm California days.

Got a skater in the family? The dedicated skate park is ideal for practicing ollies and kickflips in a safe setting. There's also a gymnasium for indoor activities, however heads up - it's scheduled for a makeover with renovations planned for 2025.

Family-Friendly Spaces

If you're looking for a place to bring the kids, Independence Park has nice options. The playground offers plenty of opportunities for little ones to burn off energy while you can keep an eye on them from nearby.

Hungry? Scattered within the park are numerous picnic tables excellent for enjoying lunch outdoors or hosting a small gathering. Just note that while there are designated areas for get-togethers, cooking facilities are somewhat limited. Restrooms are conveniently located on-site - always a plus when spending the day outdoors.

Sports and Fitness Options

Sports lovers will feel right at home with baseball and softball fields ready for your next pickup game. Soccer areas are available too, and some fields feature lights, making evening matches possible when the days get shorter.

If you're looking to get your steps in, the paved walking paths provide a wonderful setting for a leisurely stroll or a more intense power walk. What really stands out here is the unique exercise equipment - a nice change from the standard fitness stations you typically find in parks, offering a fresh way to work out in the open air.

Community Events

The park comes alive during community gatherings, especially during the seasonal concerts that bring neighbors together under the open sky. These events add a special touch to the already pleasant atmosphere.

Access and Future Plans

Getting to Independence Park is straightforward with on-site parking available. Keep in mind the park has specific hours - it generally opens at noon and closes between 5-9PM depending on the day, with no service on Sundays.

Exciting changes are on the horizon as the park is currently undergoing improvements. There's also a master plan in the works that promises to make this community space even better in the future.
