It was definitely a day fit for a President at Pacific Park yesterday! And to prove it, we snapped a few shots for your viewing pleasure! Want to feel Presidential? Stop by Pacific Park for the Royal Treatment 
A Presidential Day at Pacific Park
West Coaster cruised past Pacific Wheel!
Pacific Wheel: The world’s only solar-powered Ferris wheel gives visitors a panoramic view of the Southern California coastline from more than 130 feet above the Santa Monica Pier. Measuring 85 feet, the wheel moves at 2.5 revolutions per minute with intermittent stops to pick up passengers. Features more than 160,000 energy-efficient LED lights that display dynamic, eye-popping computer-generated lighting entertainment in the evenings.
Sea Dragon: A swinging wooden ship with two lifelike dragon heads make passengers feel as if they’re caught in the turbulent seas with the scariest of serpents. Ship moves back and forth in a 180-degree arc.
Riptide Ring Toss: Watch the throwing rings fly! If a plastic ring lands atop one of 187 green, glass bottles, you win a jumbo prize!
Fire Ball: Players use a bowling-style method to secure balls into circular pocket pits, attempting for the maximum amount of points. Your final score may earn you a prize!
The Peaceful Pacific
The Santa Monica Skyline and beach looking incredible as always!
Just another beautiful shot of Pacific Wheel!
Sea Planes: Off they go into the wild blue yonder… families will be flying high together in the all-new Sea Planes as they control the height and speed of ascent of the plane while flying above the pier decking. Brightly colored Crop Duster-style planes take off with up to four children and adults safely and comfortably seated for the family flight.
Inkie’s Wave Jumper: Catch a wave family-style on this pier-top surf ride that rotates in a clockwise motion while riders ‘jump’ up and down, and bounce around, just like riding a wave. Inkie’s Wave Jumper can seat up to 24 children or a combination of 12 children and six adults per ride and has a maximum revolving speed of 6 rpm.

DJ Kirk Enochs is excited to be back on the Santa Monica Pier for this year’s Pacific Park New Year’s Eve Celebration! He has DJ’d this event for a number of years and each year seems to be bigger and better! Last year the revelers on the pier swelled into the thousands as DJ Kirk did his Midnight Countdown. Within a month of moving to Los Angeles in the spring of ’97, Kirk was hired as a DJ for one of the largest mobile entertainment companies is southern California. Shortly thereafter, he began working as an MC for events and parties and quickly became the most popular and the most requested MC/DJ at the company. In 2004 Kirk and DJ Craig Zuckerman, his buddy from College back in Missouri, decided to stop workin’ for the Man and form their own Mobile DJ company. And with that, voila, E-Z Beatz Entertainment was born. Kirk has also DJ’d at various Bars and Clubs all over Southern California. He spent six years as the resident DJ at “Clear” in Studio City and has Jockeyed the Discs at ”Blue” in Agoura Hills, “Xes”, “The Garden of Eden”, “Star Shoes”, ”Bardot”, & “The House of Blues” in Hollywood and “The Charleston” and “Penthouse” in Santa Monica. He currently has a Residency at “Circle Bar” in Santa Monica. Follow DJ Kirk Enochs on facebook at facebook.com/ezbeatzentertainment.
The countdown to Christmas has begun, which means crowded malls, limited parking, and worst of all, the longest checkout lines you will ever see. As you create your shopping list for all your loved ones, you close your eyes and imagine “the perfect gift.” And as most writers experience writer’s block, you are overwhelmed with the perfect gift block. Sally has always wanted a pony, but they are hard to wrap, put under a tree and where would you keep it. Timmy wants a BB Gun, but as we all know from “A Christmas Story,” he could shoot his eye out. You have eight nieces and nephews to shop for and you always fear buying the duplicate gift!
Join Free People on Friday, December 14th, from 4-6pm for a Holiday Fashion Show in the store, featuring the newest holiday collection (including some specialty pieces)!
Looking for an alternative to assembly line presents? Something with a story, something one-of-a-kind? GIFTED is the cure for the common gift.
Unsilent Night is an original composition by Phil Kline, written specifically to be heard outdoors in the month of December. It takes the form of a street promenade in which the audience becomes the performer. Each participant gets one of four tracks of music in the form of a cassette, CD, or Mp3. Together all four tracks comprise Unsilent Night. The fact that the participants play different “parts” simultaneously helps create the special sound of the piece. Participants carry boomboxes, or anything that amplifies music, and simultaneously start playing the music. They then walk a carefully chosen route through their city’s streets, creating a unique mobile sound sculpture which is different from every listener’s perspective.
Just in time for the holidays, Pacific Park on the Santa Monica Pier today tops Inkie, Pacific Park’s loveable mascot, with Southern California’s largest Santa Claus hat at Pacific Park’s north entryway of the Santa Monica Pier.
