Sports and Recreation in Echo Park

via timothy.steingraeber's Flickr

We recently received a lovely letter from one of our readers:

I would love to be a part of a softball team in our area but there is little or no info out there.  I know Los Angeles has a recreational sports website but they don’t really offer anything local.  Elysian Park has fields that are usually open and if there is enough interest around town, maybe we could organize a Sunday league.  Do you have any thoughts, info, suggestions?

Why, yes, dear reader. We do have some thoughts, info and suggestions! The Echo Park Recreation Center is located at 1632 Bellevue Ave (across from the lake, on both sides of the 101 freeway). It has tennis courts, a baseball diamond, basketball courts and a lot more. The center is under construction, so some of its facilities (such as the outdoor pool) are not accessible at the moment. They also offer a bunch of classes and leagues for kids, but adult teams and leagues are a little more scarce. I recommend checking out their Facebook page for announcements. You can also call them at 213-250-3578 (the phone number on their Facebook page is incorrect) or drop in. Don’t let the scaffolding fool you, they are open right now. Their hours are 9:00 am to 9:00 pm Monday through Friday, Saturday from 9:00 am to 4:45 pm and Sunday from 9:00 am to 2:45 pm.

If aquatic activities are more your bag, I suggest checking out the Echo Park Deep Pool. There is a full-sized indoor pool and offer swimming and water exercise classes. It’s located at 1419 Colton St. The cost for adults is $2.50 to swim, but with your Library card it’s only $2.00.

Another suggestion we have is to look outside the borders of our neighborhood. The Silver Lake Recreation Center has an indoor gym, basketball courts and a baseball diamond. However, they offer mostly classes for kids.Your best bet for adult and senior classes is the Griffith Park Adult Community Center. They offer yoga, tai chi, cardio classes and more.

Another fun thing that you more adventurous types might want to check out: the Los Angeles Dodgeball Society. There’s a Silver Lake league that starts up on April 25th.

  11. very beautiful girl shows ass says:

    In recent weeks, the blonde is increasingly refusing sex with her boyfriend and does not understand why he so often has anal brains.
    She, of course, realizes that the forbidden fruit is sweet, but it is not to the same extent to pose ultimatums!

    While the partner is not at home, the slender krala undresses and, sitting in a chair in the living room, masturbates her pussy
    with a vibrator, caressing the point along the fingers.

    It was then that the girl scorched in front of her lover, who,
    without a word, kneels down before the bitch and makes
    her cunnilingus. Feeling that it is impossible to refuse further,
    the lady gives in the ass. A strong cock penetrates the
    ass with difficulty, but the fuck is worth it.

    Can I simply just say what a comfort to uncover someone that really
    knows what they’re discussing over the internet. You actually know how to bring

    wholesale jerseys from china Most outdoor Michigan wedding receptions and ceremony sites are able to provide appropriate back up facilities.

    This is offered to better serve their clients. One example is the Garden Park in Holly Michigan. One of the images of the event showed Ntikinca and Greig in the Wanderers dressing room,
    both lying on their backs, head to head; a Duncan Fearnley
    bat (the quintessential cricket prop of the decade) rests
    between them. Ntikinca, smoking a cigarette,
    has his hands folded across his chest; Greig’s hands are tucked underneath his head as he burgles forty winks between engagements.

    The image is unobtrusive but quietly stunning in its ability to destabilise the
    received orders of the day: both men are resting, happily side by
    side. wholesale jerseys from china
