We’re always looking for fun things to do with our family. We also love when we can save money on our outings. If you’re looking for a family friendly event where kids can get in free, we have one for you. On April 23 and 24th, Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series will take place in Lake Elsinore at the Lake Elsinore Motorsports Park.

This off road extravaganza offers fun for the entire family and the best part is that you can go to a Wahoo’s Fish Taco restaurant for free kids’ admission tickets to the event (12 years old and under). We’ve had a busy couple of weeks and I can’t wait to head with my family for a day out watching some racing.

It’s giveaway time! We’re giving away a four pack of tickets to the race and $30 to Wahoo’s Fish Tacos to enjoy dinner with your family after the race. All you have to do is leave a comment letting me know who you would take to the race and why. That’s it! Winner will be selected at random. Giveaway ends on Saturday, April 9th at 11:59pm. Good luck!

The 16-day food festival features countless, one-of-a-kind boysenberry inspired dishes, drinks and more, plus live entertainment, the Wine and Craft Brew Tasting Garden, and fun the whole family will love! From sun up to sun down, the festival features dueling fiddlers, Peanuts Party in the Park, vine dancing, Jammin’ in the Dark (a nighttime dance party), live music, and other live entertainment. The best part is that admission to the Boysenberry is included with admission.

We had the opportunity to try Boysenberry ribs, meatballs, wings, alligator bites, and of course, dessert! It’s the perfect way to celebrate Spring Break. You want to make sure to get out to the farm and check it out for yourself. If you are looking for something to do with the family during break, this is it!
