Facilities

Washington Park began as an 11-acre farm in 1913. The Escondido Valley Riders Association used the land for horse shows until the property was eventually sold to the City.

Washington Park Pool was dedicated on June 13, 1964, and is still heavily used by high school water polo and swim teams, a community competitive swim club, and the Recreation Division's Learn-to-Swim Program during the summer.

Note: Leashed dogs are allowed but not permitted on sports fields.
