On a peaceful Tuesday school afternoon at 2:30, we have the park all to ourselves. It's surprisingly warm for January and the sun feels good.the breeze through the leaves makes a whispery, calming sound. Time to read? Or nap? Or Yelp? read more

The disadvantage of this park is definitely the parking there are not enough spaces available to accommodate many guests considering this park is big. The main parking that I have seen and where I always park when we visit has about 15 parking spots available and these are usually occupied right away when the park opens. If you need additional parking, I have seen people park in the streets by the surrounding neighborhoods. As for the park, they have many areas with tables - the most I've seen in an area had around 8 benches scattered which is plenty for a party. The tables are long - plenty of area to place food and drinks. If you put two tables together you have enough space to use for food, drinks, desserts, and even for gifts. If you have tablecloths definitely use them as some of the tables are sticky and dirty. There are many barbecue pits next to the benches as well but they are not the cleanest I suggest bringing supplies to clean them as they are not cleaned often. There is also a waddle pool area not too far from the tables which is great for kids during a birthday party. You can rent these waddle pools for parties and only your guests can use them and you get to pick how long you can use them. The staff cleans the waddle pool before your party and then fill it with water about 15 minutes before usage time. As far as park amenities, they have the usual basketball courts and tennis courts and a playgrounds area. These areas are big and plenty of equipment for a lot of people to use. The downside is the area where you rent for parties the ground is all dirt and no hard surfaces. If you bring your own tables and chairs it will be wobbly as there are no flat surfaces to hold it down. I would not recommend renting the park for parties during the rainy seasons majority of the area will be muddy and stuff will definitely get dirty, especially shoes and strollers. read more

Memorial Park - Another great day for tennis. - Parks Near Me - Claremont, California

OK, I went Here With My Son Because College Park Was Busy And There Was No Parking. I Like That There Are Lots Of Huge Trees So There Is lots Of Shade. The Picnic Tables Are Strategically Placed Under The Trees To Maximize On Shade. There Is A Tennis Court, BBQ Areas Near The Picnic Tables, Two Swing Sets A Jungle Gym And Lots Of Space For Playing Tag Football, ETC, ETC, ETC. Very Nice Park. The Only Negative Is: The Park Faces Indian Hill Blvd Which Can Be Extremely Busy During Different Times And Not Good When You Have Kids That Are Running All Over The Park. read more

Memorial Park is where the annual Easter Egg hunt is held. The park itself is nicel shaded with plenty of grassy areas to plot down a picnic blanket. The play area can get a bit crowded but not big enough where you lose sight of your tyke. They have a basketball court and nearby volleyball pit, which can be a nuisance especially with all the sand that is often found on the court. read more
