Years ago, the San Thomas Elementary School stood on this parcel of land, and its principal was a man named Jack Fischer. Jack was said to love his students, and apparently everyone loved Jack just as much because when time came to remove the school and redevelop the land, they turned it into a park and named it in his honor.
Jack Fischer Park
The posted coordinates are of this sign.
There's a broad greensward
an artificial hill with a spiral path that leads to a circular bench
Playgrounds
Picnic tables (but only a few)
and a plaque in his honor
It's all well taken care of by the City of Campbell and the residents whose houses border three sides of the park.
