Jimmie R. Yee Park

Park Overview

Positioned in Sacramento, California, Jimmie R. Yee Park spans a cozy 3.2 acres of green space. The park bears the name of Jimmie R. Yee, a local political figure who wore several important hats in Sacramento's government - representing the city's 53rd Mayor from 1999 to 2000 and later representing the 2nd District as County Supervisor from 2007 to 2015.

You can find this compact park nestled in the Caselman Ranch neighborhood, where it's become something of a go-to spot for locals, especially those with kids in tow.

Recreational Amenities

The playground area caters to different age groups with separate structures for the bigger kids and the little ones. The park doesn't skimp on the classics either - two different swing sets mean more fun and less waiting for children of all ages.

The park features a half basketball court for those wanting to shoot some hoops. One of the nice things about this park is that it rarely gets overcrowded, so you'll usually find the court open when you want to play.

Community Spaces

When hunger strikes or you just want to relax, the picnic areas provide perfect spots to spread out and enjoy some outdoor dining. During those hot Sacramento summer days, you'll appreciate the shade structures that offer some relief from the sun. That said, the park could benefit from more substantial shade coverage and larger trees to enhance the experience on particularly warm days.

All these elements come together to create a friendly neighborhood space where people of all ages can enjoy some fresh air and recreation. The relaxed, family-oriented atmosphere makes this park a valuable little oasis within the Caselman Ranch community.
