The City of San Marcos is thrilled to announce the Simmons Park playground has re-opened.
After 20 years, the playground equipment has been upgraded, and features state-of-the-art attractions. Children ages two to 12 can now enjoy a new disc swing that sits up to four and a 68-foot-long zipline named the Dragon Rider.
The park originally opened in 2003 and has been a San Marcos favorite ever since. It features a half basketball court, barbecue, picnic tables, a trail connection and much more. The new design of the playground adds an additional 1000 square feet for activities.
“Upgrading the equipment at Simmons Park is a big deal for the City of San Marcos,” stated Assistant Director of the Parks and Recreation Department Andrea Gonzalez “It allows us to live up to our ‘San Parkos’ namesake and then some”.
The park is located at 2180 Rocky Point Drive San Marcos, CA 92078 and is open from sunrise to sunset.
