El Dorado Regional Park West

Today, I had the honor of attending the Pulmonary Hypertension walk at El Dorado Regional Park in Long Beach California.

32 years ago, this organization was created and has since, assisted in helping over 30,000 individuals.

Like so many similar organizations, their mission is and has always been to find a cure for this disease and to extend and improve the lives of those affected by pulmonary hypertension.

The walk itself was well attended and even brought out members of the Los Angeles Lakers Organization (Laker Girls), who joined families in their remembrance of their loved ones.

Although, the skies were gray and it looked like rain, it never materialized, which, made for a very pleasant walk for all.

Family members of those who have passed were given butterflies, which, were then released into the sky in their honor.

A raffle with over 50 items was held closing out the event and the day's festivities.

I encourage you to find an organization that helps those in need and truly makes a difference in their lives.

First time walking with my colleagues from work! We walked two laps while enjoying the peaceful early morning fresh air and nature's beauty.

I enjoy walking here. The parking is super easy and it's free. Not too crowded on weekdays and a lot of super friendly ducks, turtles, and seagulls.

You can easily walk three to four times around the pond without knowing it because you'll be distracted by the animals around you.

The only complain I have is that the walkway is full of animal feces. Clearly lots of personal pet owners doesn't pick up after their pets because it's everywhere. There should be more people who should enforce this. It's already bad enough that the ducks and seagulls contribute to this problem but pet owners not picking up after their pets will make this park dirty.

I walk my dog Max at El Dorado Park
Awesome place for the whole family.
I like the Dog Park and great walking areas

Took the fam to feed the quackers (and friends) today! Was a blast. Ducks even ate the bread out of my sons hand. Awesome. If you're not supposed to feed the ducks then this never happened... if you can.. it was epic! Fun little activity to spend with the family.

One of my favorite parks. It has a lovely nature center that makes you feel miles away from the city. I grew up using it so much I feel like I know it like the back of my hand and now I take my baby there and am creating new memories. The actual park is quiet and has pretty trails and ponds and you can rent bikes.

Best park near by my home area
Their park is pretty huge and has great hiking trail and camping area.
This park is free but it has hidden fee which is parking fee.
And parking fee is different between weekdays, weekend, and holidays.

I love this park, it has anything and everything you'd ever want in one place
Instead of giving an essay, allow me to be lazy and list. THANK YOU.

There is also an animal shelter located near the nature hike/trails. It is a fairly new shelter and seems to have a lot of animal rescue trailers. The archery is cool and anyone can come to use if you go early enough on the weekends and sign up (I believe rentals are included).

I walk by the tennis courts a lot and it might be that it is a private, members only, court. Though don't quote me on this. Also on weekends I see a lot of frisbee fanatics going at it from station to station. It's amazing how accurate they are and shoot it straight or bounce it off of trees! O almost forgot to mention that there's a public library near the tennis courts as well.

Every time I come here I discover something amazing, THANKS El Dorado!

SOFTBALL FIELD REVIEW.

El Dorado Park softball fields have come a long way. We've been playing here for years (about 6-7 years) with Team CBP, Masterbatters, Let It Rain to the Enforcers.

El Do has always had pretty good softball fields year in and year out. Sometimes the GOPHERS run a muck and dig up the outfields, but when the city takes care of the problem, the grass isn't that bad. When they cut the grass, you'll find pretty good and clean OFs with almost true ground ball hops.

The infields are usually pretty hard though. The 245 ft fence is ok. A bit short so all the heavy hitters try and aim it out (1 up single rule applies in the LB league).

Lots of parking (and ok to park on the grass if needed). Concession stand open when the little leaguers are in season.

Compared to Cherry Park or the fields in Los Al...El Do Park deserves a pretty good rating!

Thanks to the pretty new adult softball coordinator too. He listens to the teams when there is a problem at the field and he is making the the LB softball league better.

We had an amazing walk so calm and relaxing and everyone was following COVID-19 instruction
