Walking Tour of Historic Coronado
2022-04-07 13:00 - 14:30, 2022-03-31 11:00 - 12:30 | Coronado Historical Association, 1100 Orange Ave, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
One of the best ways to experience the history of Coronado is to go on a historic walking tour. This is the secret that Coronado locals know: it takes time to sense the past. When you slow down, you have a chance to see, hear, and remember this place that Hollywood stars, princes, and presidents have enjoyed. Everywhere you look in this charming beach town, you find history. And, that history is easiest to see on foot – when you have a chance to linger in front of a tiny, shingled house, perhaps, and meet the resident as he comes out into the yard to water his roses and tells you about the multiple generations who have lived in the home. Or, when you seemingly stumble upon the magical house from which the Wizard of Oz was born.
We’re proud to host you on Coronado’s premier walking tour. Every tour purchase supports the Coronado Historical Association and its mission. Thank you for your support.
Every Sunday at 11 am & Thursday at 1 pm
Location: Coronado Historical Association,

Pysanka Egg Decorating
2022-06-07 11:00 - 13:30 | Coronado Library Winn Room, 640 Orange Avenue, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
Learn the Ukrainian art of Pysanka Egg Decorating in this hands-on class from instructor Adriana Wrzesniewski. You’ll create one pysanka egg from start to finish.
All pysanky are created the same way, but the designs and colors vary from egg to egg. All designs are an accumulation of ancient symbols and current motifs arranged in different patterns and differing color schemes. Each pysanka is an individual piece of art work, since no two eggs are exactly alike. Originally the eggs were kept full to keep the mystical powers intact. Today, most eggs are emptied and clean to eliminate any worries about smell or broken eggs. The designs are the most important for the well-wishing gifts. Pysanky can be displayed in a multitude of ways from grouping on a plate, in a bowl or clear vase, individually in stands, candle or boiled-egg holders, and even hanging with embroidery floss and tassles. Pysanky were often placed in the corners of the home and in the thatched roofs to ward off fire, lightning and high winds. Broken pysanka shells are sprinkled into the soil to ensure healthy crops.
The class will last 2.5 hours and all materials will be provided. Space is limited. Registration is recommended. Register at cplevents.org to reserve your seat for this event.

Household Hazardous Waste Collection
2022-05-14 09:00 - 14:00, 2022-05-28 09:00 - 14:00 | Public Services Facility, 101 B Ave, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection is held the second and fourth Saturday of each month, from 9 am to 2 pm at the Public Services Facility, located at 101 B Avenue, and is available to Coronado residents only. No business or contractor-generated waste is permitted.
Household products containing toxic chemicals become hazardous waste when you decide to dispose of them. Never throw hazardous products in the trash, as the toxic chemicals may harm the environment and sanitation workers, and start fires in trash trucks. Never pour hazardous products into a sink or storm drain. It is dangerous and they will end up in our environment polluting the air, water and soil. The City of Coronado’s HHW program is available so that all residents in the community can safely dispose of their toxic, hazardous waste.

San Diego Therapeutic Horsemanship to Host Ukrainian Refugee Horse Therapy
2022-06-18 14:00 - 17:00 | Driftwood Ranch, 2191 Hollister Street, San Diego, CA, 92154, United States
San Diego Therapeutic Horsemanship, a nonprofit that provides horse-based therapy programs to veterans and others who have experienced trauma, will host a group of refugee families from Ukraine for an afternoon of equine therapy on Saturday, June 18, from 2 PM to 5 PM. The event will include interacting with horses, taking photos, creating souvenirs, and enjoying a barbeque and horseback drill team show.
Seeking to help refugees of the Ukrainian conflict, the board of San Diego Therapeutic Horsemanship based at Driftwood Ranch in the Tijuana River Valley reached out to Catholic Charities, which is a nonprofit working with refugees at the Mexico-U.S. border. Tijuana River Valley Equestrian Association, which also operates from Driftwood Ranch, will also be participating.
“The therapeutic opportunity that we offer with the horses promotes mindfulness,” says Francesa Buitenkant, San Diego Therapeutic Horsemanship Program Supervisor. “The focus on the horse gives people a break from trauma. We work with veterans, but also have a program that serves youth who are victims of crime or abuse, living in foster care, experiencing homelessness, or grieving the loss of a family member. This is why we wanted to extend this program to the refugee families. It’s what we do. We hope our equine activities can help these families also.”
During the event on June 18, participating families will meet some of the horses who live at Driftwood, have their pictures taken with them, and make a souvenir frame (one per family) and a horse necklace. A farrier will also give a shoeing demonstration and a roper will let kids try their hand at roping a calf replica. The day will end with a barbeque and a presentation by the girls riding team Escaramuza Realeza Charra.
