“Grape Day Park is a registered landmark and home to a turn-of-the-century working barn, a blacksmith shop, and other historic buildings, including the Santa Fe Railroad depot, museums, and monuments. The park has picnic tables, five horseshoe pits, a children's tile art wall, and the James A. Stone municipal swimming pool. The park provides opportunities for physical activity, promoting healthier lifestyles and mental well-being for individuals of all ages. It includes a grapevine climbing structure with hidden puzzles for kids to find, benches resembling large grape leaves, and a slide decorated with giant purple grapes with mosaic features. Since the early 1930s, Grape Day Park, Escondido's oldest park, has been the heart of community events and activities. Dogs are allowed inside the park as long as they are leashed.”
