Avelar Home Improvement

With the arrival of June also comes the arrival of one of Northern California's premier county fairs, the San Joaquin County Fair. Everyone looks forward to this festival as it is five full days of fun, music, food and frivolity. A big-name concert is always the center point of the action, but the fair offers plenty of other great activities that include a carnival, a livestock show, plenty of fun and interactive exhibits.

Stockton was once home to a thriving Filipino culture. While many Filipinos still make their home here, the older generation may remember when they were all concentrated in the Little Manila section of the city. Today, only three buildings are still standing from what was once the largest thriving Filipino community in the United States. The stories, struggles, triumphs and contributions of the Filipino culture to Stockton's growth can be traced back here. Take a dramatic tour of the Iloilo Circle, the Dimasalang House and the Daguhoy Lodge, the three remaining structures that preserve the Filipino history quite fittingly.

Relax and unwind with your pals as you enjoy a great game of pool at Eddie's Classic Billiards. This is one of Stockton's favorite places to shoot pool for the obvious reason that in addition to the excellent atmosphere, Eddie's offers $5 per hour games if you're playing solo or $9 if you are playing with a partner. Great drinks specials, a friendly staff and excellent munchies on the menu all equal a great time that can only be aptly described as "classic"!
