San Diego horse racing takes place where the "turf meets the surf" at the Del Mar Racetrack. Fans flock to the track each summer to wager on their favorite horses during the popular, annual Del Mar Racetrack racing season, mid-July - early-September. Be part of the magic and nostalgia of this long-time horse race tradition dating back to 1937 when Bing Crosby greeted the first guests, and Seabiscuit won by a nose in the infamous race in 1938. This season features the nation's top racehorses, trainers and jockeys, and plenty of fun in the sun.

Join us for Legacy Week at the USS Midway Museum, the centerpiece of Memorial Day celebrations in San Diego. Legacy Week is a heartfelt tribute to our military's valor and sacrifices, offering a series of events designed for everyone to experience the spirit of honor, remembrance, and celebration. From the exhilarating Top Gun Maverick Party & Movie Night and exclusive encounters with aviators with their aircraft to a solemn Memorial Day Wreath Ceremony, Legacy Week encapsulates the essence of Memorial Day weekend.

Avid readers, casual book browsers, and reading fans of all ages are invited to join the Museum’s free monthly Book Swap Surprise! To participate, bring a gently used book that deserves a new home and leave with a new-to-you book of your own. 
 
Each book swap will begin with time and supplies to wrap your book and write a brief description or message to its new reader.  
 
How the book swap works: 
Bring a book to add to the exchange.  
Upon arrival, wrap your book and write a brief description from your perspective.  
Engage in facilitated discussion about your books – while keeping the title a surprise! 
Choose a new book to take with you and enjoy. 
 
Free to participate, admission to the Museum is not included. All ages are welcome. RSVP required. Learn more and RSVP online at museumofus.org/blog/book-swap-surprise.
