So it comes to me as a surprise when I keep reading posts on various websites from alleged Santa Clarita residents bemoaning how little there is to do here... It's getting old.
Older than me, in fact.
Perhaps it's still cool to be jaded and withdrawn from the place you live, but life's too short to gripe about how awful the town you live in is... I love Santa Clarita. I can't seem to convince any of my old friends that it's great enough to MOVE here, but I'll keep trying. For the rest of those who happen upon my ramblings: A LIST OF STUFF TO DO IN SANTA CLARITA, in no particular preference:
Hurricane Harbor, The Aquatic Center (with Dive-in Movies), Frisbee Ultimate at Central Park on Saturday mornings, the Skatepark, the dog park, Vasquez Rocks, Mountasia, Gibbon Conservation Center, Art Slam, Thursdays in Newhall (themed street festivals with a band and food trucks), awesome hiking trails in ALL directions, just pick one. Paintball USA. Lake Castaic. Indoor Go Karts just southeast of the 5 and 14 intersection. Saturday Saugus Swap Meet. Frisbee golf in Central Park. Vista Valencia Golf Course (9 and 18 holes). Robinson Ranch Golf Course..
Greg Bratton's answer, while pithy, is short-sighted... IF all of these are unappealing, there are still church-organized activities, summer concerts, Friday outdoor concerts at the big box shopping center in Stevenson Ranch.
Magic Mountain, Comedy Club at Marie Callendars, beach volleyball at SC Sports Complex..
I truly could go on, and on... but I invite you to add to the list, in case I've forgotten something more obvious!
