Huntington Beach is known for its excellent surfing, 8.5 miles of beautiful beaches, and iconic 1,850-foot Huntington Beach Pier. Located in Southern California between the large city of Los Angeles and San Diego, there are three convenient airports to access the breathtaking views of Huntington Beach. This California surf town is a perfect getaway for families, is dog-friendly, and offers countless widespread amenities for anyone. If you choose to spend the day at the Knott’s Berry Farm, you’re guaranteed an amusing time on roller coasters, adventuring through Ghost Town, and experiencing the Southern California beach lifestyle along the Boardwalk. Another great option is embracing the all-time exploration through Disneyland! If you and your family would rather spend your time on the ocean, Newport Landing Whale Watching is always an unforgettable experience.
We are just about halfway through Summer in Huntington Beach. There are still several opportunities to get involved with the community and check out what Huntington Beach has to offer. There are several activities and happenings, so enjoy the complete guide below to guarantee a fun-filled month of August!
Huntington Beach Mazda Hosts Christmas in July –
We are moving into the final week of our annual charity event, Christmas in July.
Patterson Autos is partnering with Orange County Rescue Mission for the annual Christmas In July! Donations for this Orange County non-profit organization tend to dip in the summer months, so Patterson Autos goes out of its way each year to commit an entire month of fundraising in hopes of restocking the OCRM shelves. Every year proves to be extremely successful where thousands of pounds of items are donated, and thousands of dollars are raised. Thanks to our extremely generous community!
Orange County Rescue Mission offers long-term transitional housing in Orange County. There are several families throughout OC who depend on Orange County Rescue Mission, therefore they’ve committed to providing 400 boxes of food and hygiene products every month with the mission to minister the love of Jesus Christ to the Least, the Last, and the Lost of Orange County. They can accomplish this through the provision of assistance in the areas of guidance, counseling, education, job training, shelter, food, clothing, health care, and independent living communities.
Throughout the entire month of July, Patterson Autos will be collecting items in addition to donating $2 per test drive at any of the Patterson Autos locations. They will use these raised funds to purchase more urgently needed items to donate. Stop by Tustin Mazda, Huntington Beach Mazda, Tustin Hyundai, or Mission Viejo Kia for a donation drop-off or to test drive a vehicle. We look forward to bringing the Orange County community together and assisting Orange County Rescue Mission to restock the shelves!
