Park users must confine fires to approved barbecue pits. Campfires, bonfires or cooking fires are prohibited by ordinance. Violation of the ordinance may result in a Class C Misdemeanor. “The spring-like weather brings people out to the park which is what we want” says Director Xavier Urrutia, “but we want to make sure everyone has a safe experience and they act responsibly.” Comments can be sent to kelly.irvin@sanantonio.gov.
