John's pick of the week!

I'm John Jones, Director of the Community Services Department.  This is our fifteenth edition of the Torrance eNEWSLETTER, another way to find out what's happening in the great City of Torrance.  Each week I'll give you my picks of what you and your family can do in Torrance.


First I want to apologize for announcing the Farmers Market was open Christmas Eve; I hope this didn't create too much inconvenience.  However, trust me this time; the Market will be open on New Year's Eve - Saturday, December 31st.  Read more... 

 

As this week's selections fall within the New Year Holiday, I want to wish everyone a happy and prosperous New Year!  In addition, I am only providing you my top 2 picks this week, as many of our programs and classes are not available during this time period.  We hope you join us today, as we continue to "Create and Enrich the Community through People, Programs and Partnerships!"
