Answer 3

The Modesto Bee has a "Scene" section every Friday, with things to do. It is a guide. You might buy the paper this Friday and read it.

Modesto isn't San Francisco. I usually tell people it is a minor-league town. It has a minor-league baseball team, for instance. It also has minor-league ballet, symphony, opera and drama companies. There are fancy restaurants and ethnic ones. The fancy food won't be as good as you'd get in a 5-star restaurant in SF, but it will be good and won't set you back $200 a couple, either. There are not as many ethnicities, but we have Thai, Indian, Viet Namese, Middle Eastern, plus the standard Italian, Mexican and Chinese.

There is a chapter of the Audubon society and the Sierra Club.

The Gallo Arts Center has concerts ranging from classical to country, dance companies, stage shows - lots of stuff.

There are nightclubs downtown.

Without knowing your interests, it is hard to pick specifics. You can river raft or try out for the choir at First Baptist, for instance. Both are fairly specific and most people will say "Ewww!" to one or the other. You'll get sunburned or you'll rub shoulders with fundamentalists.

Take a night course at the Junior College.

Go to a MAPS lecture.

Go to the Prospect Theater Project or Denair Gaslight Theater.

Water ski, sail or windsurf at Woodward Reservoir.

See what's doing at the Peace-Life Center.

Join a Co-ed softball team.

When I was in my 20's I used to go to Enslen park and swim in MID Lateral #4. That may not be to your taste either, but it is an option.
