I am trying to put together a list of "fun" cheap events for us SOCAL knuckle heads to attend . "Fun" and "Cheap" are hard to find , but I have a list that I will post shortly . Right now I have 2 for this month that I plan to attend WX permitting . When I get a full list I will post them on the events page of the forum . I have tried to pick airports that are about 1-1.5 hours flying time from the Central Valley and from the San Diego area . A mid point for us .

Event #1

Here's a couple more for Rich's SoCal Fun-n-Cheap Get-Aways:

Event #3
1st Sunday every month is the Santa Paula's (KSZP) 1st Sunday Fly-In. Great open hangar day. Lots of good eats in town.

Event #4
Santa Barbara (KSBA). Park at Atlantic Aviation and take a short walk to the beach, park, pier and the most-excellent Beachside Café.

Event #5
Kern Valley Airport (L05). Park on ramp to hit the restaurant. Park down at the airplane camping ramp to walk down to the Kern River. Fish, take a cold dip or throw rocks. Rent the "courtesy car" or walk the 2-3 miles into town for the Kern River Brewery. It's awarding winning beer!! Then return to the campground for a fire and a million stars.

I'll add the last list of events to the event page . Cold dip in the Kern River ? We are talking serious shrinkage ! Not Auga Calente !
