Reid Park-Ruth H Lewis Center — Attraction in Riverside

Outstanding park. Bathrooms are clean. There's a Ruth Lewis community Center. 6 baseball fields. 1 soccer field. Large parking lots. A pool. Tennis courts. Playgrounds for kids. Everything you could possibly need in a city park. Just so people know -- This entire complex was built over the Burrows of the California Burrowing Owl. A small ground dwelling owl now nearly extinct in California, and especially in Riverside county. The entire field used to have 30 to 40 burrows there when I was a kid, around 1975 to 1980 when the Ruth H Lewis center was built. There was also a small population in the Springbrook Golf course, now an empty field adjacent to Ried park. There was also a large population in the La Loma foothills, North of Reid Park at the end of North Orange St. All the Ground Burrowing Owls...
