The Pacific Wheel will be lit red on Wednesday, May 1 in recognition of AAPI Heritage Month, 2024.
The month of May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month. This annual celebration recognizes the contributions and influence of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islander Americans to the history, culture, and achievements of the United States.
To mark the occasion, we’ll be illuminating the world-famous Pacific Wheel with a special lighting program in red. This is an auspicious color in Chinese culture associated with vitality, passion, good fortune, and celebration.
You can view the AAPI Heritage Month Ferris wheel lights from dusk until midnight on May 1. The best views of the Pacific Wheel light programs are from the Santa Monica Pier boardwalk just west of the amusement park or on the beaches south of the Pier.

How to Get an E-Bike Voucher
The application for Santa Monica’s E-bike Voucher Program is open!
The City of Santa Monica’s E-bike Voucher Program will award approximately 90 vouchers to qualified Santa Monica residents to cover the cost of an e-bike, and safety equipment like a helmet, lights, and/or a bike lock. Each voucher is worth up to $2,000 to be used at the time of purchase and will be awarded through a series of lotteries. To be eligible to receive a voucher, residents must meet defined income criteria. Vouchers will be redeemable at several participating Santa Monica shops.
It is important to note that Santa Monica’s E-bike Voucher Program is not a rebate program. Residents must apply and be awarded a voucher prior to purchasing their e-bike. No reimbursement for the purchase of an e-bike will be made prior to being awarded a voucher.
Increasing equity in access to e-bikes and their benefits is a key pillar of this program. Distinct from the City’s Electrify Santa Monica Rebate Program, the E-Bike Voucher program aims to serve low- and moderate-income households and waives any upfront costs that typically exclude such communities from taking advantage of rebate programs. If selected to receive an e-bike voucher, recipients will not need to pay any upfront costs to the bike shop or wait for reimbursement. The voucher will directly cover the cost of the e-bike and accompanying equipment (up to $2,000) at the time of sale.
Applications will remain open until all funds are exhausted. Due to limited funding, vouchers will be awarded through a lottery system, NOT first-come-first-served basis. All applicants, regardless of the date they apply, will be entered into a lottery to receive an e-bike voucher.

Just 2 weeks ago the Palm Springs Surf Club reopened after they shut down back in January due so some magical "lightning strike" that lead to a lot of pissed of customers because of the shady manner in how they didn't inform anyone. You can read about that drama here.
This time, they actually admitted they had to shut down, here's the email they sent out to those that had sessions booked:
"Your booking has been cancelled
Dear valued customers,
We regret to inform you that, due to unforeseen circumstances, we are temporarily suspending all surf sessions at this time. We understand the inconvenience this may cause, and we sincerely apologize.
Refunds: Rest assured that full refunds will be processed immediately.
Stay Connected: We appreciate your understanding during this challenging period. Our team is actively working to resolve the situation, and we hope to resume surf sessions as soon as possible. In the meantime, please stay connected with us through our website and social media channels for further updates. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

An update from the Palm Springs Surf Club
First, we want to apologize to the people who wanted to come out and surf. We know many of you have scheduled trips to come surf and we have disappointed you. Again, we are sorry. If you have a surf session booked with us, you will receive a cancellation email along with a full refund. The goal of this business is to serve up great waves, delicious food and drinks, fun music, and good times. Please know we are trying our hardest to bring the magic of surfing to the desert of Palm Springs.
Manufacturing Waves is Difficult
When you talk with the executives at the other wave pool clubs in the USA and hear their stories, we appreciate and respect the hard work and incredible journey those teams traveled to get their waves operational. Modern wave pool technology is an emerging field that is young and complex.
Our Status
Our surf wave is down but the rest of the park remains open. We expect to be back serving up waves again in the very near future. We will keep you updated on our progress in the coming weeks. Our restaurant, Amala, is fully operational, along with our water slides, resort pool, and lazy river. Additionally, we're thrilled to announce exciting performances for the upcoming Stagecoach weekend. For more details, please visit our website
The Good
We have many committed employees who are pouring themselves into making Palm Springs Surf Club awesome. We have amazing customers and we feel your energy. It's what motivates us.
Thank you for your patience, support and enthusiasm.

They also made announcement on their Instagram account, but they turned off comments (which is pretty shady).
