Players can bring games of their own or join a game group. Groups that are accepting players are designated by a brightly colored cone. This event happens the first Saturday of each month.
This event is FREE. The Santa Cruz Parks and Recreation Department offers a full slate of free activities in July as part of the countrywide celebration "July is Parks and Recreation Month." The national festivity, providing America with summer cures for boredom since 1985, has returned to Santa Cruz every year since 2005.
