Jessica Clinton Park

Jessica Clinton Park is a public recreational area located in Port St. Lucie, Florida. The park is named in honor of Jessica Lynne Clinton, who passed away suddenly in 2003 due to an undiagnosed heart condition. The park serves as a memorial to Jessica's life and legacy.

The park features a variety of sports facilities, catering to different interests and age groups. It is home to the Port St. Lucie Little League Softball League and PSL American Little League, making it a hub for youth baseball and softball activities in the area.

In 2023, the park underwent renovations to include a new inclusive playground designed to accommodate children of all abilities, including those with mobility challenges. The playground is divided into areas for different age groups: children aged 5-12 can enjoy climbing structures and slides, while those aged 2-5 have access to a colorful geometric structure encouraging exploratory activities.

Ground-level amenities include basket swings, hangout pods, and a sensory xylophone, promoting socialization and relaxation. The playground also features a large sky-surfer, net, and crawl-through tube to encourage social play. Throughout the soft play surface, heart motifs pay tribute to Jessica's memory and promote messages of inclusion and health.

The park is open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., with a sports light curfew at 9:30 p.m. It offers free WiFi and public restrooms for visitors' convenience. Jessica Clinton Park stands as one of Port St. Lucie's inclusive playgrounds, reflecting the city's commitment to providing accessible recreational spaces for all residents.
