It was an incredible day filled with joy, laughter, and a true sense of community spirit. We are thrilled to announce that the playground and basketball court are now officially open to the public. We hope this revitalized space will serve as a hub of fun and enjoyment for families, friends, and neighbors alike. This space belongs to all of us, and we encourage you to go check it out and enjoy it! | | Important Reminders for Fourth of July | | Let's make this Fourth of July memorable for all the right reasons by prioritizing safety, respecting regulations, and being mindful of our surroundings and our neighbors. Together, we can make this Fourth of July enjoyable and safe for all. Enjoy the celebrations responsibly and have a fantastic holiday! | | | | We want to remind everyone that all fireworks, including sparklers and poppers, are banned from use in Solana Beach, Encinitas, and Del Mar. Fireworks can be unpredictable and pose serious risks, accounting for 44% of burn injuries in the month of July. They can also ignite structures and spark brushfires, jeopardizing lives and properties. To enjoy the dazzling displays safely, we encourage you to attend public fireworks shows at Legoland or the San Diego County Fair. These professional displays are conducted under controlled conditions, ensuring a spectacular and secure experience for everyone. | | Please keep in mind these vital safety tips from the Solana Beach Marine Safety Department to ensure a secure and memorable Fourth of July holiday beach experience. Lifeguards will be on duty at Fletcher Cove from 8 AM to 8 PM. Remember to swim within the designated areas and when on the beach, stay clear of bluffs, overhangs, and caves at all times. Follow beach and park rules, which include no fireworks, alcohol, glass, smoking, drones, or beach camping. Leashed dogs are only allowed at Del Mar Shores and Tide Park beaches. Enjoy a safe and memorable Fourth of July in Solana Beach! | | | | | | Protect your pets this Fourth of July! Each year, the July Fourth holiday sees a surge in stray animals entering shelters, often due to pets being frightened by fireworks. Take steps to prevent them from getting lost. License your dog, microchip them, use collars with contact info, consult a vet for stress-reducing meds, arrange for a pet sitter, create a safe home sanctuary, and keep dogs leashed.
To incentivize responsible pet ownership, the San Diego Humane Society is waiving dog license fees and offering free microchipping until July 2nd. Don't let your pet become a statistic, act now! | | Solana Circle Road Closure | As an important reminder, Solana Circle will once again be closed from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM on Tuesday, July 4th due to the fireworks show at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. The road closures will be at the intersection of Solana Circle and Via de la Valle and Solana Circle and Nardo Avenue.
