July 9, 2010 (El Cajon) --The County of San Diego Department of Parks and Recreation wants to notify residents to leave the alcohol at home when visiting Hilton Head County Park, which features an aquatic center with a pirate-themed water-spray for children.

“Summer is the perfect time for families to get out and enjoy the County parks,” said Brian Albright, Director of County of San Diego Department of Parks and Recreation. “The new alcohol-free regulations at Hilton Head Park will ensure that all visitors will have an enjoyable time.”
 

The ban extends to the entire park and Sheriff’s deputies will issue citations to those who attempt to violate of the alcohol ban. Signs will be posted to reflect the new alcohol restrictions.
