The Annual San Pedro 4th of July Community Observance will be held Tuesday, July 4th, 2017 at its traditional location at the scenic Angels Gate Park, home of the Korean Friendship Bell. The Korean Bell, one of San Pedro’s most enduring landmarks, plays a key role in the ceremonial observance.
The ceremony will begin at 10:30 AM with a processional to the bell led by percussion drummers.
To conclude the ceremonial portion of the day, the assembled guest speakers and dignitaries will lead the audience in reciting the names of the 13 original American states. As they read the names, the representatives of the San Pedro and Korean Communities will strike a battering ram into the massive bell, ringing once for each state. The Korean Bell is rung officially on four other occasions each year – Korean Independence Day (August 15th) Constitution Day (September 21st), New Year’s Eve and Korean American Day (January 13th).
Angels Gate Park is located at 3601 South Gaffey Street in San Pedro. The free event, conducted every year since the Korean Bell’s installation in 1976 is sponsored by the Office of Councilman Joe Buscaino; the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks; the San Pedro Chamber of Commerce; and the Korean Friendship Bell Preservation Committee (KFBPC).

Grand Re-opening of the Hey Rookie Pool
2017-06-27 15:00 | Hey Rookie Pool, 3601 S. Gaffey St., San Pedro, CA, 90731, United States
Please join Councilman Buscaino next Tuesday afternoon for the grand re-opening of the Hey Rookie pool, also known as the Gaffey St. pool. The historic pool was once a place where World War II soldiers used to gather to watch synchronized swimming shows. After construction delays due to the discovery of World War II era tunnels, the pool will re-open for the summer season.
The reconstruction included the refurbishment of the existing historical 110-foot by 50-foot, 5,500 square-foot, swimming pool in addition to the construction of a 4,470 square-foot bathhouse with a pool equipment room. Additional improvements include handicapped access ramps and stairs, walkways, access road, parking areas, seating, exhibit panels and plaque, hillside grading, landscaping and irrigation and a new event concrete terrace.

Meet the Grunion
2017-06-25 20:00 | Cabrillo Marine Aquarium, 3720 Stephen M. White Drive, San Pedro, CA, 90731, United States
From March through July, Cabrillo Marine Aquarium presents special evening programs to introduce you to the unique and elusive grunion.
At times the beach may look as if it is covered in a blanket of silver as the wriggling fish arrive to mate. The females burrow into the sand to lay eggs while the males wrap around them in order to fertilize the eggs. Then both males and females catch the next wave back out to sea. The fertilized eggs incubate for about nine days in the sand before the tumbling action of the waves from the next series of high tides cause them to hatch as they are carried back out to sea.
The Aquarium opens at 8 p.m. Guests must arrive before 9pm to participate in the full program in the auditorium, followed by a guided observation. Dress warmly and bring a flashlight to spot grunion at the beach. Program admission is $5 for adults and $1 children/seniors/students with I.D. Buy tickets at the door or pre-purchase your tickets at Meet the Grunion to guarantee admission. Processing fees apply.

The Smog of the Sea
2017-06-25 13:00 - 15:00 | Cabrillo Marine Aquarium, 3720 Stephen M. White Drive, San Pedro, CA, 90731, United States
Movie: The Smog of the Sea
Algalita is presenting a free screening of THE SMOG OF THE SEA, a documentary from filmmaker Ian Cheney that chronicles a research expedition through the Sargasso Sea. Stay after to hear Captain Charles Moore speak about his recent voyage to the South Pacific Gyre!
After years of hearing about ocean “garbage patches,” the crew of the 5 Gyres SEA Change research expedition is stunned to learn they are actually a “fog” of microplastics — trillions of barely visible shards—permeating the world’s oceans. How do you stop a fog? Using sparkling underwater cinematography, an original score by Jack Johnson and shipmate Simon Beins, and live-action footage of the crew’s research, THE SMOG OF THE SEA makes an artful call to action for rethinking single-use plastic.
The movie and talk will take place at CMA in the John M. Olguin auditorium.
