The Harlem Globetrotters are Back!

Harlem Globetrotters return to Southern California this month!

Harlem Globetrotters - Moose Weekes dunk

A few years ago I had the chance to see the Harlem Globetrotters in action at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles. Their game/show was very entertaining for me and my friend and our young sons. In fact, my son described the players’ antics in great detail for weeks afterwards.

I am looking forward to taking my other son to see them now, because the Harlem Globetrotters are returning to Southern California this month!

  • Anaheim at Honda Center on Saturday, Feb. 13, at 1 p.m., and 7 p.m., and on Sunday, Feb. 14, 2016, at 2 p.m.
  • Mission Viejo at the Saddleback College Gym on Tuesday, Feb. 16, at 7 p.m., and Monday, Feb. 22, at 7 p.m.
  • Santa Barbara at the UCSB Events Center on Wednesday, Feb. 17, at 7pm.
  • Ontario at Citzens Business Bank Arena on Saturday, Feb. 20, 2016, at 2 p.m., and 7 p.m.
  • Los Angeles at the Staples Center on Sunday, Feb. 21, 2016, at 12:30 p.m., and 5:45 p.m.

My younger son actually plays basketball in the Agoura Youth Basketball league, so I know he’ll enjoy it just as much if not more than his brother did!

Are you a fan, or wish you could go see the show? Game? (I never know what to call it!) Tickets are available on the Harlem Globetrotters’ website here, but you can also win a four-pack of vouchers redeemable for tickets to any of the games above right here on Agoura Hills Mom! Just leave a comment on this post between now and 11:59 PM on Monday, February 8. The winner will be chosen at random from qualifying entries and the vouchers will be mailed to you on time to redeem them for even the earliest game.

I received complimentary tickets to a Harlem Globetrotters game. All opinions are my own.

Celebrate the Rec Center’s One Year Anniversary January 22

This Friday, January 22, will mark one year since the opening of the new Agoura Hills Recreation Center up on the hill behind the library. All classes and programs have moved over to the new building. It has been a joy for our family going up there twice a week for most of the year to participate in programs and sports classes.

Look how beautiful.

The event space is large and looks out over the city. The reception area is spacious and well laid-out. And a new space that opened last year, The Garage, is reserved for teens and pre-teens and gives them a place to hang out after school and play games or just relax.

On Friday there will be a whole schedule of tours and events to celebrate this milestone, capped by a movie night in the event space – showing E.T. and featuring free popcorn and hot chocolate! If you haven’t been up there yet, now is the time to check it out!
