Santa Barbara’s Cabrillo Ball Park gets new look

Santa Barbara’s Cabrillo Ball Park is reopening after a $1.5 million renovation project. 
 
The public park, located at Cabrillo Boulevard and Milpas Street, received upgrades to the softball field, and now features exercise equipment, multi-use grass turf areas, improved drainage, and a high-efficiency irrigation system fed by recycled water. Access to the park was also improved and includes a new walking path circling the field, redesigned spectator areas for ball games, and an entry plaza.
 
A public ribbon cutting ceremony will be held on Monday, Sept. 10 at 1 p.m. to celebrate the reopening of the park.
