Good morning, Oceanside.

The Oceanside Chamber will host an economic development update on November 6 from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. by Michelle Geller—who will share key projects from 2025—and a Senior Showcase on November 13 at the William A Wagner Aquatic Center with free health screenings, plus a Rising Stars breakfast on November 18 celebrating local high school seniors. Other updates include energy workshops, public meetings on the Tri-City Medical Center affiliation with Sharp HealthCare, free curbside e-waste pickups and fall energy tips from SDGE.

San Diego mom Deanna Ratnikova created The GO Deck to help families explore free outdoor spots while staying active, and she has since launched a North County edition that features Oceanside and other nearby areas.

Each card offers details about terrain, distance and local history+ it provides an easy way to plan memorable outings.
