Salud Park

Came for a 20min run to this park. They close at 8pm, usually they guys that close make a round saying «locking up» and on the second round they begin to lock the gates. There are about 8 gated doors they lock and two portable restrooms. There was a few of us still running on the track. The guy just passed us with his little vehicle and locked all the gates in front of us and left us inside the gated/​locked park. At 8pm we called the Paramount Sheriff’s Department it took him 19 min to get to us but the Policeman did not have the «master key» to open the locks. The policeman then called the Water and Power department this whole think later about 1 hour 35 min. all together, keep in mind it was 57 F and it is the first day of Winter. ALL OF THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED I’D THAT GUY WOULD HAVE WAITED FOR US ALL TO GET OUT NOT JUST LOCK IS IN LIKE CAGED ANIMALS. Worst Park experience ever.

I cannot begin to tell you the countless times I’ve almost tripped while running on sidewalks and streets around the neighborhood. I discovered Salud Park while driving home from my Brothers work down the street. I decided to try it out and was pleased to find a lit running track and various work out equipment.
The cleanliness of the park is a huge added plus. You find your occasional piece of garbage or water bottle but you have to expect that at a public park. They have various trash cans located through out the park. The restrooms at the park are limited to two port a pottys that do not have any light so you can imagine the mess and frankly I don’t find it fair for the ladies at all .
One thing I don’t enjoy about the park is that people use the inner turf area of the track for soccer games and practices. You have to constantly be on the look out for soccer balls flying by your head and rolling by your feet. I would hate to see someone get hurt by a soccer ball or player while running. I also think the no bike on the tracks should
Be enforced somehow as parents let there kids ride around on bikes and scooters while people are trying to work out .
Overall I enjoy this park and always love workout out here.
