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.

The Children's Museum of Stockton offers a chance for kids to learn in a truly fun and highly interactive way from the moment they walk through this impressive facility's front door. The museum features a generous number of hands-on, play-based exhibits and attractions that entertain, amuse and educate young visitors about various aspects of science and art while teaching them in great detail about the wonders in the world around them.

Play it cool by putting the whole family on ice—as in the ice you'll be skating on at the Oak Park Ice Arena! This classic facility has been offering great family ice skating fun since it first opened its doors back in 1970. Since then, the rink has made several improvements that make your time on the ice as fun as it can be. The surface of the ice is 85 x 200 feet and the facility also has seating for those family members who would rather watch the fun than put on a pair of skates.
