CASTLE ROCK STATE PARK WILL STAY OPEN…at least for the next few years. THE PARK LOCATED ATOP THE SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS, WAS ORIGINALLY ON THE STATE’S LIST OF PARKS TO BE CLOSED, BUT A DEAL BETWEEN THE DEPARTMENT OF CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS AND THE SEMPERVIRENS, WILL KEEP THE PARK OPEN THROUGH 2016. UNDER THE NEW AGREEMENT, THE STATE WILL ALSO OPEN A SECTION OF THE PARK KNOWN AS THE SAN LORENZO REDWOODS. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST TIME THE PUBLIC WILL HAVE ACCESS TO THIS SECTION OF THE PARK.
