Please update your Activities

The Rockers like to lend a helping hand and do so through volunteering at the San Diego Food Bank, Wreaths Across America, and much more. We were recipients of a Diamond Recognition award at the 2023 Far West Ski Association Convention.

The Rockers enjoy behind-the-scenes tours (U.S.S. Midway Museum, Petco Park, Hotel del Coronado, Taylor Guitars, California Wolf Center), music (San Diego Symphony) and wine tasting (Temecula), just to name a few. Let the Cultural Activity Leader know of any cultural and/or social happenings around the county (music, art, museums, talks, or other fun events).

The Rockers love the theater and are happy to volunteer as ushers, currently Lamb's Players in Coronado. Grab a white shirt, black pants and an usher badge and you are ready to go!

Improve your musical skills by playing with a group. We sing and play simple songs with two or three chords. This group is for everyone, including beginners, those who only want to sing, and more experienced players with the patience to encourage newcomers. Come enjoy the comradery. We meet Sunday afternoons.

Summer with the Rockers means picnics! We meet at 5 p.m. one Friday in June, July, August and September at De Anza Cove, Mission Bay. The club provides the hot dogs, buns and condiments, and members bring a dish to share and their own beverages. We also enjoy a fire and games like bocce ball and ring toss.

The Rockers love to get together periodically to share a meal at a member’s homes or clubhouses. Members and their guests bring their own beverages and a dish to share. It is always a fun time.

Any day is always better with a social hour. Join a no-host evening at many locations around San Diego.

In the summer, we love to boogie board at Mission Beach. Bring a chair, a towel, lots of sunscreen, a snack and a boogie board. Other seasons, we do beach walks at other San Diego County beaches as well as other water sports. Our activities are all year round.

Toes in the sand bumping a volleyball -- no experience needed, but a fun and positive attitude is essential, Tuesday evenings.

On Mondays, we bike at 10:00 am on flat, paved surfaces; primarily on bicycle paths (with a few exceptions). We start and finish at the same place. The rides are usually around 13 to 16 miles and include a midpoint refreshment stop. We often follow the ride with lunch. Helmets are required. Pedal Pushers - Also on Mondays, this group starts at the same location (with some exceptions) but departs at 10:15 a.m. The description is the same as Biking above but at a more leisurely pace. Long Bike Rides - On an irregular basis, we also have bike rides that are a little longer (20 to 28 miles) and faster than the Monday rides. These are designed mainly for e-bikes, but experienced long-distance bikers are welcome. Members may volunteer to lead a special ride.

This activity will be a stroll through one of San Diego's many designated locations to spot birds of all types. San Diego is one of the birdiest counties in the USA. Expect the unexpected. There is always a bird that you will call your "bird of the day"! We will meet at 8:30 a.m. and finish at 10:45 a.m. twice a month.

We bowl the 2nd and 4th Thursday at Parkway Bowl in El Cajon at 9:30 AM. The cost is $2.25 per game. We encourage all levels to join the fun.

We are mostly RVs and trailers, a few tents and some who are without wheels (WOW) and request cabins or rooms nearby. Destinations can be within a 2- to 3-hour drive, others are 300 to 400 miles to even more exciting places. Some activities are planned--always including communal Happy Hours and evening meals.

The Rockers love the short game! We play once a month.

The hiking group offers two to three hikes on various days throughout each month. Most hikes are in the 3 to 6 mile range with elevation gains between 100 to 800 feet.

San Diego is the perfect spot for kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding, usually on Tuesdays, once a month. Bring your own or rent one at the location.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, ping pong and tennis. We play doubles twice a week (Tuesday and Friday). Register to play with us; 2 hours of play.

Enjoy friendly pickleball at Coronado Cays Tennis & Pickleball Center followed by (optional) festive happy hour 5 pm), then dinner at the Coronado Cays Yacht Club. Any level of play welcome. (We love beginners.) From May through Sept 11, we have a great view of the Wednesday Beer Can Sailboat Races. The charge for pickleball is $5 per player for 4 weeks. We are doing this on the honor system, so please ante up $5 every 4 weeks. Free for first-time attendees.

San Diego is the perfect spot for sailing! You don’t need your own boat, as we rent boats at local marinas. The cost is shared among the participants.

Join us as we explore underwater areas nearby. Please support this new activity. With your help, we may start thinking internationally.

Southern California is not too far away from some great ski areas—-Mammoth, Big Bear and more. We also have journeyed to Lake Tahoe and Utah in search of fresh powder.

Whether you’re a seasoned player or out of practice and want to pick it up again, all are welcome!

The Walking activity is on Wednesdays, either in the morning (10:00 a.m.) for a 1-1/2 to 2 hour walk, or early evening (4 or 5 p.m., depending on season) for a 1-hour walk. You may go only part of the walk at your own pace and end your exercise whenever you want. Two-hour walks may include slight inclines, beach walks on sand, or uneven dirt paths. Lunch or dinner will be optional after the walks. For evening walks, inform or call/text the leader before the walk, if you will not be going to dinner. Restaurant dinner reservations are made at 1:00 p.m. on the day of the walk, so you must sign up by that time. Extreme hot weather or rain may cause cancellation of the walk, so please check the website calendar for updates.

The Rockers are always ready for travel near and far, from day excursions to multiple-week international adventures. If you are interested in leading a trip, contact the Activity Leader for information.
