Beat the summer heat at Island Waterpark, the perfect place to cool down and splash around. Designed to please patrons of all ages, from toddlers to adults, everyone will find something fun to do at this waterpark attraction. Laze around in the wave pool or floating river, or get your thrills on one of the 20 rides-including a three-story slide and the ever-popular Rapids.

Sip on a locally made beer at the Sequoia Brewing Company Bar & Grill. Perfect for a late dinner and ice-cold brew, the Sequoia Brewing Company offers a variety of award winning micro-brew ales and lager on tap. Enjoy high-quality craft beer or even handcrafted Root Beer (for those who are not yet 21) while you eat a tasty meal and listen to the music of a local band.

If you visit in October, be sure to look up the Big Fresno Fair. As its name suggests, this is Fresno County's big annual festival, and is actually the fifth largest fair in the state. Come by for live musical performances by local, regional, national and even international artists. The carnival and special exhibits promise all-day fun for people of all ages.
