Mike’s Picks

A few things around OC that caught my eye this weekend.

Saturday, Sept. 19 · noon to 11 p.m.; Sunday, Sept. 20 · 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Yorba Linda

Dożynki Polish Harvest Festival

Polish food, folk dancing, live music, cultural exhibits, family activities, and a Saturday night disco. Admission and parking are free, so this is an easy one to say yes to.

Saturday, Sept. 19 · 11 a.m. Laguna Beach

Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt

You’ll roam Downtown Laguna, Main Beach, and Heisler Park solving clues and an actual hosted murder mystery. It’s $39.99 per person and definitely not your standard Saturday outing.

Sunday, Sept. 20 · 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. San Clemente

30th Annual San Clemente Car Show

More than 250 classics, muscle cars, exotics, woodies, and vintage trailers take over Avenida Del Mar. It’s free for spectators and worth the drive south.
