Planning Notes

💡

The fenced playground perimeter is a game-changer — you can actually relax while kids play. The climbing netting is challenging enough for school-age kids but safe for preschoolers with supervision. Batting cages are first-come, first-served. Pack snacks — there's nothing to buy on-site. The Ortega library next door is a great rainy-day backup plan.
