Things to Do in Costa Mesa

Founded by two-time Olympian Felipe Delgado, Evolution Sports Camps provides a countermeasure against sedentary summers. Each week-long session engages groups of 5- to 12-year-olds with a rotating roster of activities, covering team sports such as basketball, soccer, and volleyball in addition to swimming and archery. Kids also stretch their muscles with field sports—rounds of dodge ball hone throwing and catching skills, and games of capture the flag train generations of future astronauts to one day reclaim the flag the moon stole in 1969.

Bowling isn’t just a hobby at 300 New York—it’s a vibrant social experience worthy of luxurious flourishes. That’s why cushioned lounge seats flank each of the 32 mood-lit lanes in the main concourse area. Each of these lanes faces a large screen that flashes music videos and tutorials on how to remove stuck fingers from bowling balls. Up in The Loft, bowlers can lounge and take in views of the concourse while sipping cocktails from the full-service bar. A dedicated wait staff connects them to offerings from the onsite bar and restaurant—an eatery known for serving dishes from executive chef Chad Bowser’s menu. Some of Chad’s creations include two-bite chicken or beef sliders and hand-battered fried calamari that can be paired with anything from beer to specialty martinis.
