The City of Hawthorne has an excellent Recreation and Parks Department. I lived next door and enjoyed the wading pool and baseball programs for the kids. The Historic society is there now so its another reason to go back and visit....

My kids love this park. I have a three year old, an eight and a seven. The sandlot is enclosed with not alot of exits so you can blink or look at your phone for 1.5 mins knowing your kids havent wandered out and no weirdos wandered in. Sometimes the big kids invade the sandlot with their e cig smoking selves. These kids are probably about 12 to 13 and Im gonna say something if I see them again. Especially about smoking in a pubic playground and being underage and smoking anything??? I only saw those kids one time in all the 6 years Ive come here. They probably moved back to the Camelitas. Lol jk I will be nice. This park also have cement benches and tables to throw a small party but come early and take your tables while theyre available. Everyone seems nice around here. The castle is a day care of some sort. I will explore this next.

Its a very big spacious park with a kids area that has slides and swings, it also has 2 baseball fields which we use because my sons baseball games are here. Also its a place for birthday celebrations, it is always super crowded. On the other hand bathrooms are terrible, parking is crazy and the time we went there was a car chase and like 5 cars were damaged total losses. That is reason for my stars.

Its functional and enjoyable for the friends and family well kept and clean

5G satellite towers are all over the place. For any park regulars do your research and try your best to remove these towers as they cause Major harm to our bodies.

It a great place to have fun with friends and family ️

Peaceful and quiet when I went; about 1:00pm on Thursday

Love this park been coming here since 1997

Decent park. . . Has 2 swings for infants plus I believe 6 other regular swings. Small set of toys for younger kids & and a bigger play area as well. Has several different slides. My 3 year old really likes this park. My only complaint is its all sand. The toys are all in sand. Theres a walk way to get to the infant swings which is nice. A bunch of tables and a bench close to the toy area. The restroom arent bad either. . .

We had a Amizing class wit Gabriel Hernandez.

Its nice!

I like this part Ill take my sun to this park once a week or twice, I used to take him a lot between the ages 3 4 5 and 6 this park is cool and recommended

So nice park for a daily routine walking in this place. It was so good place. So clean and relaxing. Wide park and walking around experience the beauty of this park.

My other half and I used to spend a whole lot of time here at Jim Thorpe Park when we were dating and I really feel very delighted to now visit it with my children. We love this park. It has a substantial field for kids to play or for exercising, jogging, ball games, etc. It is always very clean as well as additionally we always have a pleasurable time! It has great deals of environment-friendly location, fantastic playground and the sidewalk loophole has actually exercise terminals incorporated along the course. The park is constantly spick-and-span in addition to likewise their restrooms, it also has large amounts of shade and also benches, however we truly recommend you to bring a blanket to spend some time under the trees. We have never ever had any kind of difficulties while seeing the park, people that come are likewise incredibly pleasant as well as likewise neat individuals, sometimes we even partner with different other households for picnics which is constantly very enjoyable. Keep in mind to bring the sunscreen.4435 W 129th StHawthorne, CA 90250

Nice place, nice families watching the kids play ball. Looks like the fence and bleachers need a facelift though.

Cameras were installed so crime went down. A lot more safe.

It was clean, fun and everyone was very respectful. There is parking and all you need is at your finger tips

Its a great park

Nice group of guys play pickup soccer here a few nights a week. I was in town for a board exam; I saw them playing and jumped in for an hour. Sponsored in part by the Hawthorne police department from what I was told.

Cool park to jog around. Nice trees and grass. Shady. Relaxed. Clean bathrooms.

Huge playground for kids to play at. Large grassy feilds to run around an play. Been coming here off an on for over 20yrs with my kids. Love this park!

Wasnt bad but its really hot . not much shade on the playground. So sunscreen & fluids for the little ones would be ideal.

Its a good place to chill and you can enjoy the scenery of nature and animals. But there is a lot of people that smoke in the park

The best place for family bonding.

Nice scenery

Fun for the kids to play on a very Hot Summer Day...Lifeguard Staff is too busy with boyfriend today & texting on phone...Troubling behavior for a Staff Member watching over the pool site & kids...

Some new led lights for the light polls also equipment. Should be made available for surrounding residents in the area with a parent id or there school id to show for rental purposes and to show kids early reasponsiblities and show there parent/ or parents they can also be responsable also new toddler swings and kid swings .new baseball equipment for baseball field .and new paint job on restrooms and new city park signs and some love to the trees pls and a thought ice ring would be pretty cool ASAPN PLS IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED...JONATHAN CORONA

Decent park. Baseball field closer to Prairie is in better condition.

The event was wonderful. The old cars are always a classic.

Brings not of memories

The park is awesome

Good area to play with your kids

Nice park

SKETCHY!! Avoid if you can!

Trying to get involved with the Hawthorne Historical Society.

Surrounded by a mix of people. People that have children that live around the neighborhood trying to just take their kids to the park. That includes people that should not have been allowed to have children. Also people do not care for the obvious signs everywhere that say,no smoking people smoking in front of children. I saw to black guys throwing knifes at a tree. I guess perfecting their skills. After they were done they sat in their black suburban and sharpened the knifes. Latino people and black people majority hanging out. Not saying anything is wrong with anyones race because I myself am of one of these ethnicities. But why is it that you have to break all the rules, cuss in front of kids act like you would fight anyone here. Just plain ghetto. Exactly what ppl from Manhatten beach or Hermosa and Torrance this about this place. Straight ebt, low rent paying sad upbringing cases. You have a few ppl that actually come here to enjoy the park in a legal manner. By not selling, doing drugs. If you live in this side of Hawthorne make sure you have a car and drive your kids to the Manhatten beach pollywog.
