Two state parks and an integrated city and county parks system afford the opportunity for diverse recreation, from sporting events to peaceful sunrise walks and Sunday afternoon sailing adventures. Local entertainment options vary from attending shows at The Historic Murphy Theatre, to dining at independent restaurants and browsing at locally-owned retail shops, or experiencing an array of community festivals, all just an hour away from major market entertainment venues.
