Valencia Meadows Park: The Perfect Park for Family Fun
February 11, 2016 by
Valencia Meadows is the perfect little park for locals looking to get out of the house and go for a stroll in the sunshine without the stress of fighting crowds at a larger park. What it lacks in size, Valencia Meadows Park more than makes up for in spirit, according to Yelp reviews.
Despite its small acreage, the park still has everything you need to enjoy the California weather. Its colorful playground beckons to children, enticing them to get outside and put down that tablet or smartphone. And with picnic tables nearby, your family can make an entire day of it—just pack lunch. Valencia Meadows also boasts a swimming pool for those particularly hot days, a baseball field, a basketball court, and bathrooms so that you don't have to run home for potty breaks.

William S. Hart Park and Museum: Say Hi to Norman the Cow
February 4, 2016 by
Chances are you've never seen a cow quite as big as Norman. The affable cow lives on the grounds of this natural history museum, along with a herd of other barnyard animals. Chickens, turkeys, and even a potbelly pig still live on the farm, despite the fact that namesake William S. Hart hasn't lived here for years.
If you know anything about silent film, then you might have heard of Hart before. He was a renowned actor and direct during the silent film era. During his time at the now-museum, a Spanish Colonial Revival style mansion, he accumulated many works of art by bonafide masters. You can still see pieces from Frederic Remington and Charles M. Russell when you visit, not to mention artifacts that once belonged to local Native American Tribes. Once you've explored the indoors, head outside to meet the animals and the herd of bison that live on-site at William S. Hart Park and Museum.

Valencia Laser Blast: For the Young and Young-at-Heart
January 14, 2016 by
The stakes are even higher in an amped-up round of Capture the Flag at Valencia Laser Blast. For one thing, you don't actually have to be physically caught by someone to get tagged out—they just need to point and shoot a laser at your vest. If the shot hits, you can't score any points for your mission for a few minutes. And those few minutes could make all the difference.
That's time you could be spending trying to breach the dividing line inside of Valencia Laser Blast's twisty-turny laser tag arena, complete with winding ramps and secret sniper spots. If you're quick enough, you might be able to zip past the opposing team (and tag out some competitors in the process). Once you're on the other side, aim a shot at your rivals' home base to win the game for your team. After the game, you can cool down with a visit to the arcade at Valencia Laser Blast.
