I believe Arizona is the best state in the country for public land use. We have some of the most beautiful desert in the world, as well, we have four ecosystems. Many states have only one. Over sixty percent of the state is public land which is laced with fire, mining and DOT roads. ATVs & UTVs are often the only means of accessibility to these remote treasures and this is what we do.

We attend plays and sometimes concerts on a monthly basis, we have had season tickets for 3 years and love the plays, the actors as well as the dining, the ease of getting into and out of the venue, truly a pleasurable experience and I really appreciate how the actors always draw us into the stories, sometimes with very minimal props even! We will continue to visit this venue for years to come.

Peoria Sports Complex was the first Major League Baseball spring training and player development facility in the country shared by two teams. Built in 1994, the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners utilize the facility year round. The complex has a main stadium and twelve practice fields. In addition to baseball tournaments, the facility hosts community events, concerts, art and trade shows, weddings and group events. The surrounding area includes numerous hotels, restaurants, shopping and entertainment.
This was our second visit to the Peoria ballpark, with seven years in between. They have made many great improvements to the park. The fan experience is still excellent. The food prices and variety are really good at this park. They have outside vendors all through the park, especially behind the lawn seats in the outfield. They have a great craft beer selection in several places in the park. Their dedication to bringing in outside vendors kept the prices considerably lower than in other parks and the variety is wonderful. The only warning I would give fans is that there is very little shade at this park even in the seats. Overall, because all of the cactus league teams travel around, if you want a great experience come watch your team in Peoria.

First time at a trampoline park for my family. Lots of fun. Joust, dodgeball, jump dunking, zip line, climbing wall, American ninja warrior course. They tried it all and left with big smiles.

Who would have thought that Peoria, Arizona would have a theater that provided quality shows and music. A wonderful little venue where the atmosphere was pleasant, the seats wonderful and the staff extremly friendly. The night I went there was free summer concert and the music played by the two artists ranged from an electric violin to acoustical guitar. Great show! I highly recommend taking a look and I am sure when you do you will not be disappointed at the quality of any performance in this small town called Peoria.
