Wonderful Wilson Park in Torrance CA

by

Torrance has an abundance of great parks but none really compare with the features and amenities of Wilson Park.  It’s a sprawling patch of beautiful green open space in the heart of Torrance and across the street from the complexes of Plaza Del Amo.  Located at 2200 Crenshaw Blvd 90501 the aminities and facilities are as diverse as they come.  About the only thing it’s missing is an aquatics center.

They certainly have the usual features…..playgrounds, fields, etcl, but it really is much more of a “recreation center” than a park.  Some of the many things to do at Wilson Park include:

  • Barbecues
  • Basketball Courts
  • Tennis Courts
  • Paddle Tennis/Pickleball Courts
  • Horseshoe Courts
  • Sand Volleyball Courts
  • Children’s Playground
  • .91 mile Fitness Course
  • Annenberg Tree House
  • Electric Car Charging Stations

Also available to reserve:

  • Picnic Areas
  • Softball Diamonds
  • Roller Hockey Rink
  • Indoor Sports Center
  • Outdoor Amphitheater
  • Batting Cages
  • Live Steamers ridable railroad
  • Splash Pad (open April-December)

The park is just amazing with ample parking, playground areas, incredible and unique sports facilities, fields and more.  What makes this so unique is some of the athletic areas unseen just about anywhere else.  These include the usual softball, baseball, soccer fields and tennis and basketball courts but also include a roller hockey rink, futsal turf field, batting cages, a childrens summer water area and a small guage railroad offering actual rides!

Wings of Freedom WWII Aircraft Tour Coming to Torrance

by

For aviation and WWII buffs alike there’s reason to get excited.  The Wings of Freedom Tour is coming to Torrance in April.  Not only can you see some historic aircraft but you can tour them and even fly in them!  Some of the historic planes are the B-17 Flying Fortress, the B-25 Mitchell , B-24 Liberator, the P-51 Mustang and P-40 Warhawk.  As a WWII aviation enthusiast myself I can’t wait to see these incredible planes.  Both the B-17 and B-24 offer walk throughs.

Take to the skies!

For an even more unbelievable experience you can fly in the B-17 Flying Fortress, B-24 Liberator, and B-25 Mitchell. Flight training (no experience necessary) on the P-51 Mustang and P-40 Warhawk is also available to actually take the controls and fly the famous fighters of WWII with an experienced instructor for either 30 minutes or 60 minutes!
