Recently, the park had experienced graffiti, vandalism, and other damage. Closter Park is a newly renovated space built for the Salinas community. Itโ€™s a place for children to play, families to gather, neighbors to connect, and everyone to enjoy.

As our community enjoys this beautiful space, letโ€™s work together to keep it welcoming, clean, and beautiful for everyone. Every small act of care makes a difference.
