Event Space: No matter how inviting the space look BEWARE of renting it for your child event. How I…read morewish that there was a review available before I decided to take this space. THINGS TO CONSIDER: You wont be able to use the Computer room or Game room because kids busy playing at the park or playing the party games you have. Besides they dont have it on and there are no help around to instruct you or the kids KEEP IN MIND YOU BREAK YOU PAY You cant swivel the TV!! Who will see your event video on that small room side?!! You will take your event garbage with you, home! NOT leave on their premises so might as well rent a garbage truck when its cleanup time You will have to set up the table and chairs even after emailing them a month that you will need these things to be up before arriving You will leave this space much cleaner than when you arrived. 2 rooms (main and meeting room) NOT enough for 70 people. Their website will tell you Main cap: 80 meet room cap: 40 1.star is for getting my deposit back in a timely manner

I was originally looking for information about the museum and arrived at this page: https://www.mihpf.org/tours. I hope this will help you find their tour options and dates! All digitalized, no fuss. And it turns out I was the only who signed up for today's tour, and they did not cancel on me because of that. I really really appreciated it. One last thing, the money you spend on the tour goes into helping this foundation : ) Yay!

This park is right across Frog Park in Sycamore Hercules. It has a half-court basketball and a few…read moretables for an outdoor picnic. It's relatively small and has a small trail behind the park. Aside from the basketball court, there's really no outdoor activity you can do. A small place just to leisurely around while walking on Sycamore.

It's the Central Park of Hercules. Yes, I'm probably overstating its appeal, but for a bedroom…read morecommunity like Hercules, it fits. I only discovered the park myself when I took an inadvertent detour on the San Pablo Bay Regional Trail when I was trying to avoid the breezes from the bay. There are picnic tables, a bocce ball space, a basketball half-court, and even horseshoe pits. Parking is ample for such a small patch of greenery... And yes, there is a pond. I may have even seen a duck. The paved walkways represent the best part for me because I'm either coming or going. Those who stay are either young moms with their toddlers or dogs with owners glued to their smartphones. There's also a kid's playground (Frog Pad Park) right across the street. What more would you want? A zoo? Shakespeare in the Park? Tavern on the Green? RELATED - Exploring this part of Contra Costa County?

I went to the Bayview Eagles performance space, adjacent to the bar for a fabulous Cajun/Zydeco…read moreperformance by a new friend of mine, Andrew Carriere and his group of extremely talented musicians. He comes from a storied Louisiana family of Cajun and Zydeco musicians. He is versatile, sings, plays the triangle, the harmonica and the washboard. and in my little experience of watching him play with various groups, he lets everyone shine. His band's music was made for dancing and I have two left or right feet. The regular fans know what they are coming for - to dance. One of these days I'll earn without upsetting a partner. But then someone has to pay the price for teaching a newbie. A great place to visit for affordable beer and some wine. If Andre performs there, I'll be prepped to dance :)
