This would be okay if they then set up their games where those teams only played each other. Instead you play against every team and have teams of experienced players playing against teams of kids that have never played. The scores ended up most days atleast 30 points to 0. It really discouraged my kids away from basketball all together. Also, the taller female coach came in smelling like weed most days and we don't really want our kids around that. I think we would have tried the program again if they mixed up the teams better or separated the skill levels. We stopped going to the games and just went to practice by still felt like a waste of money.

I recently found out about this place from a friend's Instagram story when they went. So I made…read moresure to plan a hike here for when I had time. I was able to come here in the middle of the week around noon. The GPS made this place easy to find. There is plenty of parking here at pena adobe park and lagoon valley park. The hike is located at lagoon valley park, so don't mix those up. You do have to pay $5 for parking, and the machine kiosk was broken when I went, but you can still pay through the park mobile app, which is what I did. The hike is listed as moderate, but felt borderline difficult to me (maybe I'm just out of shape). There is a lot of up hill when you first start, and because there wasn't a lot of shade combined with me going on the hottest day of the week (low 80 degrees), it did make it feel more difficult. After I parked, I was a bit confused on where to go so had to ask someone finishing up their hike for the direction. I was instructed to go up the main trail past the gate for the main trail to the lighthouse at the top. There are lots of trails here, but the one to the top of the hill is the most popular, and probably the most difficult). Once you park in the lot by the lake/pond, you cross the road to the grassy side and follow that trail to the gate that keeps the cows inside. There is another easier hike/walk your can take around the lake/pond, which is mostly flat. The views on this hike are great. Despite it being a little warmer, the breeze helped a lot. I liked the views and made it to the top after about 1 and a half hours. In total, it took me about 2 hours to finish the hike. And that's with a 20 minute break halfway going uphill. Going downhill is a lot faster. I'll be back for one of the other trails and how to bring family and friends to join.

We made a quick stop here so that I could do some birding while on a roadtrip through the area…read more What a great park! There is a great trail around the lake where you can view many waterbirds.

I was happy to see that this playground has some cool features on top of the things I look for as a parent. The play area was very clean and the grass had just been cut that morning. Lots of room to run around here. There's a tennis court and 2 half basketball courts to the right of the play area too. I like that there's a drinking fountain, even if it's not in the best location (tucked against the tennis court entrance) and that there are plenty of seating options. Unfortunately, none of the benches or tables have any permanent awning over them, but a few will be shaded by trees at the right time of day. My daughter loved playing with the scoop toy and racing me down the blue slides. This playground must get packed after school and during the summer. We'll definitely be back by then to have even more fun!

We will, unfortunately, always have individuals who will not clean up after themselves though. In regard to play areas, there are a couple areas where both big kids and little ones can enjoy. The jungle gym areas have bark to help soften kids' falls. I'm personally not a fan of the bark, since it gets in shoes, cause splinters, and what not. Thankfully, other areas have a thicker rubber covering the ground. There is also a water station where kids can play and enjoy playing in the cool water. This was a huge hit for many of the kids (and adults with their children) during the summer.
