To celebrate the grand opening of the new playground and exercise equipment at Pioneer Park in Lompoc, the community is invited to a ribbon-cutting ceremony, 11 a.m. Tuesday, July 2 at 1209 E. Airport Ave.
The free event will be a kick-off celebration of Parks and Recreation Month in July. This year’s theme Where You Belong celebrates the ways park and recreation professionals across the country foster a sense of belonging in their communities by providing welcoming and inclusive programs, essential services for all ages and abilities, and safe, accessible spaces to build meaningful connections.
The Lompoc event will feature remarks from city officials and community leaders, followed by the ribbon-cutting, and a chance to explore the new amenities. The improvements at Pioneer Park include:
- Inclusive playground: Designed for children of all ages and abilities, featuring safe, durable, and engaging play structures. A PlayCore triple national demonstration site.
- Outdoor exercise equipment: Accessible and easy-to-use fitness stations for community members to enjoy a healthy lifestyle.
