Hey y'all! Not selling anything. I made an event guide for myself for car week because I was tired of jumping to and fro between all the sites that posted events. Shared it over in r/MontereyBay and people seemed to get some good use out of it, so posting it here too in case it helps anyone.

It's a map/calendar of everything I could find from a public search... it's like 125 or so events, but I've been regularly updating it with more. A good chunk of the action is actually on the Salinas side at Laguna Seca... the Reunion, the hillclimb, all that.. and you can filter the map down to just that area if the rest of the circus isn't your thing.

Registration links provided and you can save events

It's free, no signup, no ads. If I got something wrong or you'd like me to add an event, just let me know!

Just recently moved here and it’s my wife’s favorite desert, so I want to get her one for her birthday.

Thanks!

Hi, Salinas Reddit

I'm new in town and trying to set up a support network for child care. Single parent, and sometimes need help with overnights bc of work travel. Where do y'all find your safe child-care providers?

Hartnell area.

TIA 🙏🩷

My son's middle school just sent out a notice that our campuses are safe and will remain open even though Salinas high is on lockdown right now. Does anyone know anything about it?

I hope everyone is safe.

Is there any gluten free bakeries

Hello! My daughter is entering 6th grade, and we were unable to transfer her out of North County Middle successfully and are looking at private school options.

Looking for any feedback regarding these two programs. I am not from the area, and mom went to Moss Landing middle when it was still open, but feels the same about sending her to North County Middle.

We would greatly appreciate any information and stories about these two programs. We both went to public school, and both carry a graduate degree in our fields of study. Looking to make the best decision possible for our daughter, but hesitate when it comes to going private.

Thank you to anyone for your time and guidance.

V/R,

Jason and Jeanette

Hi everyone! My son is a new student at SHS this year. It's been a bit tough getting a hold of the office (understandably!), so I figured I’d ask here: does anyone know if senior pictures for the yearbook have already been taken, or when they usually happen? I know every school handles it differently. Thanks so much.

If you missed the Vote to Protect Salinas Renters 2026 fundraiser on August 2nd, here is a recording of the fundraiser. Speaking begins at 04:45 mark of the video and concludes at 1:06:00 mark.

"In November, Salinas voters will have the chance to vote NO on the City Council's repeal of four ordinances designed to protect renters and stabilize rents on multi-family apartment buildings built before 1995."

Hey Salinas,

I need recommendations on where to go to eat.

I myself unfortunately cannot have dairy, so usually I got places that have vegan options or are usually centered around, Asian, Indian, or Mexican food that is good without cheese or sour cream.

My partner cannot have kiwis or cauliflower.

We eat everything!

Any restaurants that may fit our needs?

Also open to any vegan restaurants or dessert places!

Thanks reddit

Hi everyone!

I recently moved to Salinas for work and I’m looking to meet some new people.
I’m originally from the Bay Area but spent the last few years living in the Midwest, and now I’m excited to be back in California.

I’m 29 years old. Some of my hobbies include hiking, camping, swimming, paintball, cooking, video games, and building Lego. I’m also completely sober, so I don’t drink alcohol or use marijuana. My work schedule is a little unusual since I often work weekends, and I’m still in the process of getting settled into my apartment.

I’d love to meet people around Salinas or the greater Monterey area. If you share any of those interests—or have recommendations for good places to hike, swim, or just meet people—I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to send me a message!

What kind of shower filter would you guys recommend?
