If you are out for a great day of fun in the sun, or maybe up for some aquatic adventure, make plans to head to Lake Arrowhead. This magnificent alpine resort attraction is located in the heart of the San Bernardino National Forest. Enjoy such activities as mountain biking, sailing, hiking, and camping. The summer months bring outdoor festivals and concerts, while the winter is the time for cross-country and downhill skiing as excellent slopes and designated ski areas are a short 25 miles away.
San Bernardino welcomes its share of bands that are on tour, and when they make their stop at the San Manuel Amphitheater, be ready for a great show. This entertainment venue has been a longstanding live music benchmark in the community, and while it isn't the fanciest or most polished place to see a show, the rugged and somewhat rough surroundings only add to the experience of seeing your favorite rock band take the stage and rattle the walls a bit.
The fun and down-home charm of a county fair is alive and well thanks to the San Bernardino County Fair that runs from late July to early August. This family-fun event features everything from prize pigs to excellent live music, games, and lots of other great activities.
