I made a cool discovery today!
If you’d like to learn how to play the game of horseshoes, you have an opportunity to do so in San Diego’s beautiful Balboa Park!
During my walk this morning, I spotted members of the Balboa Park Horseshoe Club out having fun in the horseshoe pits in the southwest corner of the park. I spoke with some of the friendly folks and learned that the public is invited to learn the game with a free horseshoe pitching lesson! The lessons are held on Thursdays at 6 pm, near the corner of Juniper Street and Sixth Avenue. Look for the blue sign that reads San Diego Chess Club/Balboa Park Horseshoe Club.
During the present coronavirus pandemic, they have taken all the necessary precautions, so you can feel safe.
Make sure you notify the Balboa Park Horseshoe Club San Diego you’d like a free lesson, so someone will definitely be there! You can connect via their Facebook page here.

I live in downtown San Diego and love to walk around with my camera! You can follow Cool San Diego Sights via Facebook or Twitter!
I haven’t played in years, but since I did as a child, I have to say, it helped me with eye-hand coordination that came in handy in all sports! (Plus it was just plain fun to play!!)

Yes, we do. I’ve heard of it before, but its not a game I’ve ever played. It does look fun, I might give it a go now. 🙂
