Barney Schwartz Park

Plenty of stops, spawns, and gyms

The pond at Barney Schwarz Park is not a swim pool. All Public Pools are treated with Clorine in order to guarantee safety for those who swim. I am a pool owner and I serverly limited who could use my pool during the Covid19 Pandemic. In many communities public pools have been closed for over a year. Hotels and resorts have also closed most of their pools and hot tubs. I am not speaking for the City of Paso Robles or the Parks Department. I speak as a resident of the City.

Yes

Rental is necessary if you plan on having a big party and you want to assure you will have the spot you want. If someone else gets there before you and you have rented the space they HAVE to move. So to assure you will have full use of space another party cannot get there before you and claim it. We would always send someone up early to claim a spot then decorate to kind of hold it perse. But one year someone didn't see the reserved sign and they spent an hour setting up. Next thing we know the party that reserved the spot came to set up right in the middle of our party. We had to move everything and everyone. It was a pain non the less! We had to cram everything and everyone onto and around a single picnic table because everything else was now taken. So play it safe and reserve.
