Learn about all of the outdoor beauty you'll find at Stockton's Oak Grove Nature Center and Oak Grove Regional Park. The park offers plenty of great activities throughout the spring and summer that are designed to educate visitors about the plants, animals and ecosystem that all contribute to the area's obvious natural beauty. The trails remain open in the fall and winter but the Center's activities are limited to the constraints of the weather.

California is known for many things, but wine is perhaps one of the most famous. The fine products of area vineyards are brought together in a creative and delicious way with the Wine and Chocolate Weekend, scheduled close to Valentine's Day every February. The event takes place in Lodi Wine Country and guests enjoy the finest wines paired with the most decadent chocolate concoctions which add up to an experience that is as aromatic as it is delicious.

Replay Records more than lives up to its name. Stockton's favorite record shop harks back to a time before iPods and computer downloads and instead, people enjoyed their music by purchasing records and cassettes. The store maintains an impressive inventory of classic vinyl record albums, hard-to-find cassette tapes as well as used CDs, DVDs, and memorabilia like posters and collectible items. So if you're in the mood to hear the unmistakeable sound of vintage vinyl as it spins on your turntable, the experts at Replay Records can help you name that tune!
