Bill Cleator Community Park

THE People's Park, was established in lieu of a Condo development back in the 70'$ when a vocal contingent of Radical OBcians flexed their "Collective Muscle" to stop it.
Back when citizens knew being organized and Active was an Effective tool to unwanted change. Council CLEATOR (RIP) was a brilliant visionary who demonstrated the capacity to listen, coalesce a consensus, and DO Right for his often ignored grassroots constituents on this and many other issues. At a minimum we owe at least a plaque commemorating him and those events which left unaltered that land for US ALL to enjoy.

The park is mainly used for baseball, Peninsula Little League. It's hard to grow proper grass here and the infields are dirt. That being said a lot of baseball is still played here with a lot of good players and parents. I have been coaching here for several years and find the experience quite enjoyable. There is also a children's playground here that is used quite often, people picnic and lots of dog walkers.

This is a gem. I true San Diego Hide away. Great bird watching. Come when the tide is High. As a kid we walked this entire wetland area. Tadpoles, frogs, lizards, snakes and turtles were plentiful. Now the big attraction are the birds. Egrets, Terns and Blue Herons are common sites. Great spot.

Great family park for America's pastime. Perfect place to live the dream!
