    In Ventura, after you take your introductory Pickleball Lessons at Juanamaria Park, this is another…read moreplace you can come to get some practice and experience playing in actual games. When my friends and I completed our beginner level lessons at Juanamaria, we talked about trying the Open Play here at Harry A Lyon Park. We were all a little doubtful we were good enough to hang with the Open Play players. Well, I had to find out. My coach at Juanamaria told me to come here and find Doreen, the woman in charge of Open Play. I found her, introduced myself and told her I wanted to play. There wasn't a game immediately available so, in the process of evaluating me, Doreen gave me what amounted to a private lesson. I was super impressed. It was such a generous gift. I learned a hell of a lot! Doreen immediately ascertained what level I was at and matched me with some players that were cool with playing a beginner. I was really grateful for Doreen steering me into the right game, and also appreciative of the players that welcomed me into their game. Very nice players! As it turns out, you are likely to run into all levels of players here during Open Play. There are a lot of very, very high level players. It's super fun to watch them play! But there are also a large number of average players, eager to improve their game. As far as I could tell there weren't any players worse than me. LOL. But I'm cool with that because everyone I've met at Open Play at Harry A Lyons Park has been hella cool. People are competitive, sure, but not obnoxiously so. Mostly you run into people that are clearly having a good time. Way more laughing at than cursing at their misplays. So, particularly if you are new to Pickleball and wanting to get some practice, I highly recommend checking out the Open Play here at Harry A Lyon Park. Especially if you are worse that me. There's an immediate need for weak players so I can start winning some games!

    Cute park to take the Puppy! My son's dog loves to come into the big fenced in area and play around…read morewith new and old doggy friends! The owners usually get their steps in walking the track around the park or sitting on the provided benches. The park also provides bags to clean up after your pup! Springville does have human areas also but we didn't visit them!

    I've been to Springville a few times now for the dog park and recently for Pickleball. I love this…read morearea of Camarillo as it's obviously very nice and safe. I like that there is some shade up by the park. The dog park isn't for me but I appreciate the layout of it with both the small dog section and the big dog section. It's not so much the park, it's the dog owners which made me take a break from this spot. Like other reviews said some people just aren't mindful dog owners and why they take their dogs to the park is beyond me. My dog is shy and attached to my hip so he didn't love the dog park to begin with. When I'd come here to this specific dog park there were enough instances of aggressive little dogs attacking other dogs that I kind of just became over this place. If I felt my dog was safe here I'd try to bring him more but with the little aggressive dogs & his disinterest we haven't been back for a long time. Some of my friends have said good things about this dog park so I'm sure it just depends on the day and which set of doggies you come across. My more updated review is for the pickleball courts. Came today and I enjoyed these courts. They are nicely painted and clean. My only upgrade is I wish they had more squares. Only two pickleball courts so if it's a busy day you'll definitely need to wait. However today wasn't too bad and we got to play a lot. Met a lot of nice fellow players and overall it was a good day. I like that the parking spots are close to the courts. Easy. A nice place to play as long as it isn't busy, wish they had more courts but I just doesn't seem like they have the room. I'll definitely be back though.

    You probably already knew that Pickleball is America's Fastest Growing Sport…read more I mean, doesn't it seem like everyone you know plays Pickleball these days? It's damn near ubiquitous. Even the E-Trade Baby plays Pickleball. It's like you can't go 24 hours without hearing someone yammering on about Pickleball. Pickleball pickleball pickleball. You're thinking, if everyone doesn't shut the hell up about Pickleball I swear I'm gonna punch someone! But they never shut up. And of course, as good as it might feel, you can't just go around punching people. So, you need to find a way to channel that aggression in a positive way. If you feel you need to whack the hell out of something, Pickleball might just be the activity you are looking for. Strange that Pickleball might be both the cause of and solution for your frustration. Of course there's much more to the game than just whacking a ball with a paddle, but the whacking part is so satisfying. A great way to let off a little steam. Ventura Parks and Recreation offers Introduction to Pickleball classes here at Juanamaria Park. Currently there are Level 1 Introductory classes on Monday nights from 6:30-7:30 pm, and on Tuesdays from 9 to 10 am. And there is a Level 2 Introductory class on Thursday mornings from 9-10. The classes run for four weeks at a time, and cost $100 for the four lessons. Legend has it that Tennis was played here at Juanamaria Park back in the olden days. You can still see the lines here that define a tennis court, but I've never seen anyone actually playing tennis. From the size of their huge ass courts, I'm guessing tennis players must've been about 8 or 10 feet tall. Just in case any Jurassic era Tennis players show up, there are signs posted to keep them away from Pickleball players. The division of court time seems equitable, but one wonders why time is blocked out for a game that's not even played anymore. And you know, there's more to Juanamaria Park than just Pickleball and Tennis. There is also a Basketball Court, for example. And there is a huge grass covered field just waiting for someone with a frisbee to show up. Plus they have those cool charcoal grills. Bring some briquettes and something to grill and you could put together a real good time here. There are bathrooms too, but I've never checked them out. I have no idea when they are open or how clean they are. But if I had to guess, I'd say they're pretty well maintained. The whole park seems very well-maintained. Juanamaria Park is where I learned to play Pickleball. It's a great little neighborhood park. I give it my wholehearted recommendation. Mikey C says: Zero Zero Two
