June is here, and Ridgecrest has a few good local events worth putting on your calendar.
Whether you are looking for food trucks, local shopping, a museum day, or something simple to do around town, here are a few Ridgecrest options for the month.
# # Ridgecrest Events This Month

# # Local Places Worth Visiting This Summer
If you are staying close to home this June, Ridgecrest still gives you plenty to explore.
A few local favorites worth keeping on your list:
* Maturango Museum
* China Lake Museum
* China Lake Petroglyphs
* Red Rock Canyon State Park
That is one of the things I appreciate about living here. Ridgecrest is not trying to be like every other town. It has its own pace, its own history, and its own desert character.
If you are thinking about buying, selling, or simply want a clear read on the Ridgecrest market, I am always glad to help.
