Cypress Park (Newbury Park)

Cypress Park is a five-acre neighborhood park in southwestern Newbury Park, California. Acquired in 1969, the land was eventually developed into a community park in 1973. It contains a baseball field, a playground, picnic tables, and bleachers. It is owned and operated by the Conejo Recreation & Park District (CRPD).[2] Situated immediately south of Cypress Elementary School, the park is also home to several ponds and smaller creeks. It is used for bird-observations,[3] recreational activities, picnicking, and camping.[4]
