Highly recommended program: www.cisv.org. Also in 20 other chapter across USA and 60+ other countries.
Over 50 years in existence. Both my kids did several summer programs, starting at age 11, with the last at age 18. Gained tremendously and in both cases it helped them get into college.

Though the location is quite convenient, the products in this store are a bit outdated and the selection leaves something to be desired. If you are a dedicated sports enthusiast, you're better off going to a higher quality store, as this place offers older and cheaper models of their products. It's also on the smaller side, so there isn't as much variety as you would find at a place like Tri-City Sporting Goods or R.E.I.

This is one *big* sporting goods store. For a single store (not a chain) it is one of the biggest stores I have ever seen! You can certainly find whatever sport you are interested in here, and the appropriate accessories and equipment are available.
Prices go from okay to good, depending on product and time of year, and their end of season clearances are very good. My biggest complaint is that they aren't very convenient to the highway.

Every season-spring, summer, fall, and winter- the City of Fremont distributes a publication for its recreational activities. It is a great program because the prices are so much lower than taking lessons at a private studio. They offer all sorts of things for every different intererest and taste. There are educational classes for people that want to learn how to speak english better, open up a business, learn sign language, etc. There are also many physical activities: gymnastics, dance, karate, and many more.

Lake Elizabeth is a fun place for both kids and adults. The lake is in the middle of the park. There are also tennis courts, several playgrounds, picnic tables and BBQs, and a trail that goes around the lake. I’ve seen people with fishing poles out, but I don’t know if they ever caught anything.

More
A rugged park between the hills and the bay, this wildlife refuge is a good pace for bike riders and runners, as the trails offer a great view of San Francisco Bay.
It's a good place to see some native flora and fauna, though it's a bit more rugged than most traditional family parks.
There are also volunteer opportunities to repair ramadas and build family houses at a Tuibun-Ohlone village site for "Shellmound Mondays", as well as at the nursery, which is run by a grandfatherly man who is very casual and appreciative of the help. Good for people who want rougher and more authentic wilderness.

Behind Ohlone College rises Mission Peak, a beautiful hiking area that offers a view of the bay and the surrounding hills after a short two hour hike to the summit.
Though one may encounter a few cows on the three miles to the way to the top, the trail is not usually otherwise crowded, and is particularly enjoyable during the spring, when the rains turn the grass green and even occasionally bring a few wildflowers to life.

I'm sure you've heard the commercials on TV. Tri-City Sporting Goods has the best prices on winter gear. Parkas, ski pants, boots, and binding, even boards! They have a huge selection and the staff and very helpful in finding you the right item. They also have a rental service that allows you to rent equipment for the weekend.
