“It’s an exciting time for Meduza with our first full season in Ibiza alongside our friend James Hype.
Teaming up with David Guetta, as he yet again pushes the scene forward with his bookings for Future Rave, feels completely the right move” – Meduza

“Getting the request from Hï Ibiza for this residency at Future Rave, alongside my talented Italian friends Meduza, shows how far I’ve come in the last couple of years.

Online Scams Targeted at Teens

A study warns teens to be on high alert for online scams this holiday season as they are now falling for scams faster than every other age group.

The money lost by teens grew by 1125% over the last five years compared to 390% for seniors. Teens lost just $8.2 million in 2017 compared to $101.4 million last year. This speaks to the growing sophistication of scammers and the overconfidence of tech-savvy teens online.

Social Catfish released a study on the State of Internet Scams 2022 after analyzing data from the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center and the FTC released in 2022.

A record $6.9 billion was lost to online scams in 2021, up nearly double from $3.5 billion in 2019.

California ranked No. 1 with 67,095 victims losing $1,227,989,139 last year, an average loss of $18,302.

3 Online Scams Targeting Teens This Holiday Season:

1) Romance Scams: During the holidays, teenagers who feel lonely — despite being surrounded by family — turn online looking for connection. Romance scammers approach them with stolen photos of an attractive suitor, shower them with love and affection, and begin asking for money.

How to Avoid: Perform a reverse image search to confirm their identity.

2) Social Media Influencer Free Holiday Giveaways: Scammers create fake Tik Tok and Instagram accounts to impersonate popular social media influencers. They offer free product giveaways and include a link to redeem the product. It is a phishing link that steals all of your data.

How to Avoid: Fake accounts have few followers. Never click on any suspicious links.

3) Online Shopping Scams: Teens do most of their holiday shopping online and scammers are creating fake stores and running ads offering holiday discounts. The fraudulent look-a-like website looks may look legitimate at first glance, but any products purchased will never arrive.

How to Avoid: Fake sites have spelling errors in the URL and grammatical errors across the site.

If you are the victim of a scam or attempted scam report it to the FTC, IC3, FBI and IdentityTheft.gov.

How to Map Multiple Locations on Google Maps

Google Maps is one of the most popular navigation platforms, and for a good reason. It takes plenty of data from various sources, including websites, users, and businesses, offering it as an integrative platform for all users. Google Maps is reliable and easy to use, making it efficient for small businesses wanting to develop custom maps. Currently, Google Maps allows users to pin multiple locations simultaneously, although it’s a lesser-known functionality.

How to Pin Multiple Locations with Google Maps?

You’ll need a list of all locations to map multiple locations on Google Maps. The address file should include all individual addresses but can also include detailed information like latitude and longitude data. Your spreadsheet will need at least two columns of data, although the order of the columns doesn’t matter.

To start:

Visit the Google Maps website by entering maps.google.com in your web browser.
Sign into your Google account and select the menu icon in the top corner of the screen.
From there, choose the “Your Places” button.

Locate the “Maps” tab to start building your map, and select the “Create Map” icon on the bottom menu. Give your map a name and add an adequate description. To locate the import button, click on the three dots and open the layer menu. Select the file that contains your spreadsheet data and choose to open the file. Google Maps will automatically plot all points onto the map.

Customizing Your Google Map

Unfortunately, Google Maps offers fewer custom options than third-party programs, but they present a few options. If custom options are essential to your company (for example, custom colors, design, and mapping options), consider purchasing a program like Maptive. This program allows complete personalization while integrating with Google Maps. After locations upload to the program and appear on the map, users can personalize the physical appearance of the map within the settings.

To get started with Google Maps, here are a few customization options available:

Adding Individual Markers

If you’d like to add an additional marker to the map, click the “Add Marker” button on the page and select the location you’d like the marker. Users can personalize the marker color if they want the new marker to stand out.

Changing the Style and Color of Pins

When you’d like to change the style and color of your pins, simply click the “Uniform Style” button and choose another styling option available.

Adding Additional Points of Interest

Adding points of interest to your map can connect users with additional components to your map. These items might include restaurants, hotels, businesses, etc. To add a point of interest, perform a simple search for the location in the search bar. Select the location you’d like to add from the drop-down results. Choosing a location will focus on the point of interest on the map, with the option of adding the site as a marker on your map.

Adding a Custom Google Map Style

Users can change how a map looks by choosing the “Base Map” button. This button will create a menu where users can change the map style. Choose the map style that works best for your business, or return the map to default settings by clicking “Reset to Default.”

How to Search Through Your Markers

Google Maps currently offers a built-in search function that allows users to search by category, label, or location name. Use the main search bar at the top of the application to search for your marker’s name, address, or category.

How to Navigate Between Markers

Clicking on a marker within Google Maps will bring an option “Directions to Here” icon. Selecting this icon will start creating a route within the map. To create a route between two markers, click on another marker icon. Users can also add custom directions to the map by choosing the “Add Directions” button at the top of the software.

How to Share or Embed Your Map

When you’re happy with the map, sharing is relatively simple. Start by clicking on the “+ Share” button. If you’d like to add your custom map to a professional blog or website, choose the “Embed” button and pick the size you want. To embed the map, copy the text in the box and paste that code into the HTML.

2023 LEXUS RX

Listen to MacKenzie Richter, Lexus Product Marketing chat w/ Vaughn on 360 MAG Apple/Spotify podcast about 2023 Lexus RX HERE.

360 MAGAZINE had an intimate driving commitment at the Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara with one of the top-selling vehicles in the Lexus fleet. Although 2023 Lexus RX pricing was not announced, exterior colors, trim and powertrains were readily available for testing. After five generations, performance, style and innovation have intermingled in the luxury of the new age with this hot stepper. All in all, we strongly believe the RX F SPORT is the heavyweight candidate for this reboot.

Design

The silhouette of the RX has been redesigned with stylish and sporty lines. To many, at first glance, it is a lean and agile approach. Ready to pounce. Suitable with a grill brooch coupled with jewel headlamps and taillights. The cabin is also marked by embossed patterns on the door panels and headrests of top-of-the-range models. Race-inspired red bucket seats with bespoke like black side panels. Ambient lighting is also available in different models in a variety of color combinations.

Technology

14-inch infotainment screen effortlessly placed on the dashboard for easy use of the driver’s control. This season, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are wireless, making it more intuitive and fluid. Wireless charging stations are larger for the next generation of phablets, in particular the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra and Z Fold4 flagships. Not forgetting, the inside has USB-C ports sprinkled throughout. Sure, you can head nod to Drake‘s Sticky with its optional Mark Levinson signature speaker set.

Performance

Larger calipers signify better braking. Rear wheel steering is a must-have, especially for parallel parking, snaking roads and u-turns. The ability to displace torque in different ratios also allows the riders to push outside of its previous capabilities. 21″ wheels in tandem with low profile Michelin tire add much needed traction for various terrains. Offered power plants are as follows: RX350 has a 2.5L 4-cylinder turbocharged pushing 275 HP; RX350h possess a 2.4L 4-cylinder with AWD as well as CVT produces 246 HP and RX500h F SPORT matches electric alongside of 2.4L turbocharged to produce 367 HP. Adaptive cruise controls, lane departure paired with civilian detection – excellent for the increase of low-stanched fat tire e-bikes in cities. Just because they have pedals, doesn’t mean they can’t excel beyond 50+ mph.

In short, the Lexus RX cocoon has become a magnificent butterfly with the RX500 F SPORT variant. It literally floats, moves easily within tight spaces, and is sure to cause a stir with transcultural youth. Lastly, a two-row, five-seater SUV with muscles and brains that can survive a hectic Gen Z household.

ENGWE EP-2 Pro E-Bike

ENGWE EP-2 PRO, THE FOLDING ELECTRIC BIKE THAT YOU CAN TAKE ANYWHERE

Modern e-bikes are great alternative transportation methods for those looking for quick, enjoyable, and exhilarating travel. We see them all the time — whether it’s your Uber Eats driver dropping off your midday lunch or your friend meeting you for dinner in the city – e-bikes are everywhere.

The ENGWE EP-2 Pro e-bike is an excellent option for those interested in delving into electric transportation. Priced at $999, the ENGWE is an affordable option, furnished with essential e-bike features. The Engwe EP-2 PRO Electric Bike will be delivered FREE, within 3-5 business days to the US, EU and UK Mainland.

360 MAGAZINE had the opportunity to test out the ENGWE EP-2 Pro e-bike in the concrete jungle. Please read below to find out what we thought about this practical e-bike.

Curb Appeal

Coming in at 70lbs, the ENGWE EP-2 Pro sports a conveniently foldable frame for optimal storage. Though this e-bike is heavier than other models, it offers an easy daily commute.

Available in the colors Black, Dark orange and Slate gray, the design of the e-bike is sleek and unisex. Structured with distinct and sharp lines throughout, the ENGWE carries a modern and universal sense that would adorn many.

Design

The original ENGWE comes furnished with 20 x 4.0 all-terrain tires to tackle varying landscapes. At 360, we swapped out those tires for a puncture-proof option, and acquired a saddle seat for the e-bike. The new tires were puncture-proof and withstood potholes that encompass the city.

The neck of the ENGWE can be adjusted according to passenger height with leather handlebars. The 48v 13Ah lithium battery is hidden with the suitable design of the e-bike in the battery compartment. To ensure further safety of the battery, the ENGWE made the compartment locks with a supplied key. An electric bell is, too, included with the ENGWE.

Technology

With a 5-level pedal assist, the ENGWE conforms to each passengers riding style with assistance from the LCD display screen. The 12.8 Ah battery fully charges within 5-6 hours and can be charged on the go with the charging port.

The 48 V front ambient light illuminates your pathway with bright and prominent rays. The mechanical breaks sport rear lights, sparking up when you begin to slow down.

Performance

The enhanced 750W motor is the star of the ENGWE show. The e-bike exhibits top speeds of up to 28 miles per hour, and ranges around 50 miles while in route. With easy torque customizability, passengers have the option to increase or decrease their torque.

HUBA-HUBA CAMBODIA

Leave a reply

By: Alexandria Baiz × Vaughn Lowery

Cameron Michael Parkes was born in Vancouver, Canada (in British Columbia). He graduated from the University of Calgary, majoring in chemical engineering with a minor in petroleum. While working at a consulting firm, the oil prices dropped and he used his severance package to travel the world.

Throughout his two year journey in Southeast Asia, he found himself at Koh Rong Samloem – a small island just off the coast of Sihanoukville, Cambodia. Two main places to stay are Saracen Bay (dense more modern filled with tourists) or Mpei Bay (rustic village area with tons of locals). After a few weeks in both places, Cameron decides to trench through the hot and sticky jungle (with snakes, wild monkeys and insects) to the most desolate yet serene part of the island, Sunset Beach. He quickly becomes acquainted with paradise and decides to plant his feet at Huba-Huba where he enjoys perfect sunsets with unobstructed sea views.

After a brief trip to Sri Lanka, he returns to Huba-Huba to discover that the owner’s husband had passed in a tragic motorcycle accident. The widow offered to sell and Cameron decided to purchase. Looking back he says, “I like the beach-jungle vibe which isn’t perfect. I love this spot. Right on the beach, beautiful bay, monkeys come around, geckos.”

Huba-Huba Cambodia

Situated at the end of the beach, it contains 4 bungalows, 1 family bungalow, 4 private double rooms and 1 dorm – 8 beds and 3 tents. Their kitchen is armed with one of the best cooks on the entire island. Their “BBQ Nights” serve up sensational samplers of pork ribs, tofu, prawns and chicken. Polite waitstaff, heavy handed mixologists and free painting station where you can repurpose instruments as well as pieces of wood to build a sculpture from scratch. Snorkeling gear is available for rental.

Sleeping Trees owned by Yves Chalot

Yves (a notable bartender from Brittany) came to Sunset Beach as a dive instructor and fell in love. One day after speaking with his bosses, he discovers a beachfront property for rent. Then he invites his brother (a carpenter) and they decided to erect ‘Sleeping Trees.’ The name derived from only having tree tents and the idea of ‘sleep in’ trees arose. The vacation area has two newly renovated bungalows, four tipis and four tree tents. Each space can accommodate up to two people. In addition, there’s a 4-room dorm which can host eight. At the present moment, both owners want to focus on better gardening and overall aesthetics of the property. Best attributes are their crepes, homemade rum shots and Reggae Night on Saturdays.

Robinson Bungalows

Sebastian Straub, former social worker in Switzerland, has now owned the property for 5 years alongside of his wife Julia. Their location is pet-friendly and includes 7 bungalows and 7 tipis. Each bungalow is constructed from wood with straw rooves perfect for a cozy and tropical stay. Their reimaginged family bungalow or ‘Cozy Kikki Lu’ is an ideal choice for guests seeking modern-like amenities. Tents make for a perfect glamping experience since they’re about thirty feet from the ocean. We enjoyed soaking up the sun in one of the 20 hammocks on the premises. Take advantage of the full bar and $1 beers during happy hour. The onsite restaurant takes advantage of seasonal local produce and fresh catches when possible. Our favorite menu items were the English breakfast, hearty fruit bowls, red snapper and barbecued pork & chicken skewer. You may enjoy meals upstairs (two-stories high) in an outdoor covered dining patio and/or at the beach bar. Every morning, a taxi boat for guests cost $10 to go to the city and is easily accessible.

Sunboo Beach Bungalows

Karlo and Parisa Zahipour Moarefi both came from Austria, borrowed money from friends and invested in Sunboo. There are 6 Bungalows and a dorm with 8 beds. The beach or garden bungalows have ceiling fans and newly renovated bathrooms and sinks. With a strong Italian influence, everyday dining is delightful. For breakfast they make french toast, pancakes, crispy bacon and homemade baguettes. For lunch fresh gnocchi, burgers and triple fried french fries. The dinner menu is westernized with our favorite thin crust pizza. And of course the Sunboo beach bar is the party area where we sip and socialize. One of the only establishments which serve wine on Sunset Beach.

Sunset Adventures Dive Shop

They offer a full array of outdoor activities on the island with two locations – Saracen Bay and Sunset Beach. We took their half-day diving class (for all levels) and their master instructors were extremely attentive. The rock climbing experience offers amazing views of the sea. Kayaking trips are a must-try with a guide to discover the wonderful island and underwater world. The most intriguing activity on the island is the nighttime plankton tour which allows one to witness and capture their bioluminescence.

Lazy Beach Resort

A private tropical hideaway on Koh Rong Samloem. The vacation area has 1 private beach, 22 bungalows and 1 guest house. The wooden bungalows all have two large double beds, en-suite bathrooms and a spacious balcony offering waters edge views of the warm tropical ocean. Paddle boarding is one of the most popular activities to do, but also board games, snorkeling and dive sites. The infamous bar is a must visit with the number one drink being the ‘Bahama Mama.’ All sorts of signature drinks like brown and white rum malibu, grenadine and juices. This private beach getaway is breathtaking.

Koh Rong Samloem Lighthouse

The most amazing experience on the island and also its highest point. We recommend you take a taxi boat to the drop-off or trail which leads up to the lighthouse. Rumored to have been an old military watch tower, the views are spectacular. Be prepared to climb at least 7 to 8 stories to the top. The smell inside the lighthouse is a tad overwhelming and rancid. Be willing to pay at least $1-3 USD for the private tour. That price does not include the taxi boat.

What to know before watching Arcane

Leave a reply

League of Legends is one of the most well-known MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) games of all time. Riot Games’ 2009 release, League, drew gamers from all over the world and developed a significant esports scene. It features two spin-off games: Teamfight Tactics, an auto-chess battler, and Legends of Runeterra, a card game.

League of Legends lets players to choose from over 100 playable champions from the mythical realm of Runeterra. The mythology and people of Runeterra inspired Arcane, a Netflix animated version of League.

If you’re ready to get into League of Legends after Arcane, it would be a good step to use a gaming marketplace like Eldorado.gg. With the help of Eldorado.gg, you can purchase a good League of Legends boosting service to improve your quality of life and earn exclusive ranked rewards at the end of a season.

Arcane will dig into this universe, concentrating on the narrative of the sisters Vi and Jinx, who are estranged after being separated as young infants in the undercity of Zaun. There’s a lot to study before viewing the adaptation, with 12 years to build up the mythos. Before you watch Arcane, here’s all you need to know, starting with a glimpse at Runeterra.

Regions in Runeterra

Runeterra is a huge fantasy planet divided into 13 sections. These locations are occupied by a vast range of ethnicities and span a wide range of civilizations and biodomes. Runeterra is rich in history and magic, from the lush, verdant flora of Ionia to the enormous deserts of Shurima, the militaristic kingdom of Noxus to the solitary territory of Ixtal. Arcane takes place in two distinct areas: the shining City of Progress Piltover and the undercity neighborhood of Zaun.

Piltover and Zaun are so inextricably intertwined that Legends of Runeterra treats them as a single area in its game. Piltover is constructed above the cliffs that Zaun is built in, thus they practically stand on top of one other. Despite their close proximity, the two areas frequently clash owing to variations in living circumstances and customs.

Piltover, also known as the City of Progress, is a center for trade, science, and education. Piltover is well-known for its Academy, which educates Runeterra’s greatest brains in cutting-edge hextech science procedures and how to further enhance it. Its ports are also a major source of trade, with merchants travelling from all across Runeterra to Piltover. As a result, Piltover has become a wealthy city with a good level of living.

Zaun, on the other hand, is a far grimmer region, absorbing much of Piltover’s runoff and suffering from significantly greater rates of poverty and crime. Tragic chemtech and other industrial incidents occur often, but the Zaun Gray is one of Zaun’s most hazardous risks. The Gray is a thick haze from the industries in Zaun and Piltover, and its varying thickness makes breathing in Zaun a nuisance to a hazard. The people of these contrasting regions harbor a deep dislike of each other; the citizens of Piltover look down on those of Zaun as a lower class, while Zaunites have a simmering hatred of the Pilties for creating the impoverished conditions they live in. Arcane promises to explore these tensions, with the official trailer showing glimpses of riots and hinting that the tenuous peace between the regions is coming to an end. Of course, any fantasy world is only as good as the characters who inhabit it, so let’s take a look at the champions who will be in Arcane.

League of Legends Champions in Arcane

Jinx

Jinx is well-known throughout Piltover and Zaun as an anarchic madman armed with amazing armament, including her shark-shaped missile launcher Fishbones and explosive fire chompers. Jinx conceals many of her misdeeds under pranks ranging from changing all of the city’s street signs to wrecking and stealing Piltover’s most protected vaults. Much of Jinx’s background has remained a mystery, including a fascination with Vi that went unanswered until Arcane revealed that the two are sisters who grew up together in Zaun. The trailer also implies that Jinx’s madness is not a natural development for her, but rather a state of mind imposed on her by an unknown figure.

With the ever-growing collection of Jinx skins, you can snag one for yourself, even on a budget. Use Eldorado.gg to get heavily discounted prices on LoL accounts that have all the top skins that you need.

Vi

Vi is a prominent character in Arcane, and she is voiced by Hailee Steinfield. Vi grew up in Zaun’s streets and rapidly earned a reputation for being quick to rage and even faster to punch. She led a gang in her teens for a brief period until a failed heist with a partnered game went wrong, putting innocent people in danger. Vi departed from Zaun shortly after putting the other gang in their place with her legendary hextech gauntlets. She subsequently reappeared as a member of Piltover’s Wardens, the organization in charge of maintaining peace and order in the city of progress. To this moment, the reason Vi departed Zaun has mostly remained a mystery, and Arcane will very certainly provide an explanation.

Caitlyn

Caitlyn, played by Katie Leung, grew up in a wealthy home, the daughter of renowned hextech engineers. Caitlyn, on the other hand, felt just as at home in the forest beyond Piltover as she did in the opulent metropolis where she grew up. Caitlyn learned to hunt wildlife and became an exceptional shooter as she explored the wilderness, which proved useful when she returned home to discover her parents taken. Caitlyn hunted out the crooks responsible – except for the mastermind, C – and went on to become a well-known private investigator. Caitlyn’s prowess eventually persuaded the Wardens to hire her as a sheriff, and she now maintains the peace in Piltover with the powerful hextech rifle her parents manufactured.

Jayce

Jayce, played by Kevin Alejandro, was raised in the City of Progress and exemplifies many of its principles of creativity and discovery. Jayce is a bright creative with a profound grasp of technology that allows him to outperform his contemporaries, including those who have studied for longer than him. His intellect has also caused some to regard him as aloof and arrogant since he just can not understand why others struggle with things that he finds simple. Viktor was the only scientist who could compete with Jayce’s intelligence until Viktor’s goals escalated to unethical proportions that Jayce could no longer ignore, leading to his murdering his only friend.

Viktor

Viktor grew up in Zaun and immediately learned that many of the industrial mishaps that plagued the undercity were the result of human mistake. He developed self-driving machines capable of performing manufacturing operations and eliminating the human component. Viktor’s talent attracted the notice of Piltover’s Academy, where he flourished alongside some of Piltover’s best brains, including Jayce. Viktor and Jayce collaborated on a number of projects, including a mechanized diving suit. Viktor advocated adding a chemtech helmet to the suit, allowing supervisors to manage the divers and eliminate human mistake even more – but Jayce regarded it as the unethical death of free choice.

How to Meet Your Celebrity Crush

Leave a reply

Is there any one celebrity that you have, well, a bit of a crush on? We all have pop culture figures that we follow through their different projects. What happens when you have the opportunity to meet your idol? Here are some ways to make that dream a reality.

Lowering Monthly Expenses

Chances are, you’ll need to pay to meet the icon of your choice. You might need tickets to a convention panel or a concert. Alternatively, celebrities might charge for one-on-one meet and greets. One way to lower your monthly expenses is to refinance your existing student loans. That’s an especially good option if you have a good credit score, or you need more pocket money now.

You can use a student loan refinance calculator to determine what your monthly payments would be and see how you could save. Another option is to do more home cooking. Takeout and TV dinners might be easy, but they’re also pricey. That goes especially for people living in a large household. The best way to feed several people at once is by making meals with large portions. Consider investing in cookbooks and some updated kitchen cookware.

Looking Up Scheduling

The easiest way to encounter a celebrity is when they’re on a tour of some kind. Whether you want to meet a musician, actor, author, influencer, Youtuber, or someone else entirely, your best bet is to meet them at a fan gathering. Find out about any upcoming tour dates. Maybe a band is touring to promote their new album, an author is touring for a book release, or a celebrity is planning to speak at a con about their latest project.

Whatever the case, scheduling is key. Look for the venue closest to you and book your tickets well in advance. Depending on how popular the individual or the event is, the tickets have the potential to sell out quickly. You don’t want to miss your opportunity. Or you can make a vacation out of it and travel somewhere to experience the tour. Meeting your celebrity crush would definitely make the difference between a good versus a great vacation one that’s for sure.

Pay for the Meeting

Just getting tickets to the show won’t necessarily be enough. Are the celebrities having any meet and greets before or after the event? Find out about these opportunities and make sure you have tickets to get in. Once you’ve done this, you should give some consideration to the meetup. Is there anything special you’d like them to sign? What about something you’d like to tell them? Are there any photographs allowed, and how long will you have with the person?

In most cases, there will be a line of people following the same dream you are. The celebrity might not have a lot of time to make your acquaintance. So, it’s important to make your limited moments with them count for as much as you can. With all this consideration, you can come to the meeting fully prepared. And keep in mind that you don’t necessarily need to bring anything except your enthusiasm. What’s important is that you’re getting the chance to meet someone you admire without any strings attached.

California – New State Parks Program

Leave a reply

California State Parks, First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom and the Natural Resources Agency today announced the opportunity for fourth graders to apply for a free California State Parks Adventure Pass. Effective today, they can apply for the pass that will give them the opportunity to explore 19 select state parks free for a full year.

“The California State Park Adventure Pass is an incredible new program that will help promote a healthier, more equitable California for all—a California where every child has the opportunity to explore, learn and benefit from our state’s natural wonders,” said First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom.

Championed by the First Partner, whose California for All Kids initiatives support children’s physical, mental and social-emotional well-being, the California State Park Adventure Pass Program expands the opportunity for fourth graders and their families to enjoy the benefits of connecting with nature, with each other and with their communities.

Applying for the free pass online is simple. All that is needed is a name, address, phone number and an email address. For individuals who do not have access to a smartphone, computer or printer, and/or do not have an email address to use when applying online, they can still apply for a pass by visiting a State Parks Pass Sales Office—click here for a list of locations—or by calling (800) 444-7275. For detailed information on the program and the list of participating park units, please visit parks.ca.gov/AdventurePass.

Assembly Bill 148, signed by Governor Newsom in July, established the California State Park Adventure Pass Program, a three-year pilot program that waives day-use entrance fees to 19 state parks for fourth graders and their families for a full year. Earlier this year, the governor also signed Senate Bill 129, legislation that includes $5.6 million to fund the new Pass program.

When determining which park units would be selected to participate in the pilot program, State Parks reviewed several factors including a diverse list of park units that span the state geographically. By spreading the park units throughout the state, the department will be able to maximize participation by limiting the distance that would need to be traveled to the nearest participating park. State Parks was also mindful of including a diverse collection of park units in terms of park features. The final list includes beaches, museums, redwoods, off-highway vehicle recreation, hiking trails and important cultural history.

The State of California believes in the right of all Californians to have access to recreational opportunities and enjoy the cultural, historic and natural resources found across the state. Too many Californians cannot access the state’s parks, beaches and outdoor spaces, nor the state’s array of museums and cultural and historical sites. Given this, the California Natural Resources Agency and California State Parks are prioritizing efforts to expand all Californians’ access to park, open space, nature and cultural amenities. This priority requires reshaping funding and programs to expand opportunities to enjoy these places. Doing so advances Governor Gavin Newsom’s strong personal commitment to building a “California for All.”
