The water slide is always an<br />
Oil and Water dOn’t Mix.<br />
Used motor oil should NEVER be<br />
poured onto the ground, into storm<br />
drains or tossed into trash cans (even in<br />
a sealed container) because it contains<br />
toxins which contaminate the soil,<br />
groundwater, streams and rivers.<br />
Two easy ways to Safely dispose of used oil and filters:<br />
1. FREE curbside pick up is<br />
available to city residents for<br />
used oil. Call 1-800-698-4377<br />
to schedule an appointment.<br />
2. Drop off used oil at a<br />
Recycling Collection Center.<br />
For the nearest location go to<br />
calrecycle.ca.gov/UsedOil/Info<br />
or call 1-800-CLEANUP<br />

SLIDERS There are plenty of twists, turns and straightaways<br />
at Alpine Slide in Big Bear.<br />
affordable way to play anyway<br />
with all-day passes just $15, 10<br />
rides for $10, or single rides for<br />
$2. Parents who don’t play never<br />
have to pay, many choosing<br />
to sit on one of two spacious<br />
sundecks with a good book<br />
while the kids have a blast. Or,<br />
head to the recently expanded<br />
indoor base lodge to escape the<br />
sun where there’s video games<br />
and family-priced snack bar that<br />
includes an old-fashioned Breyers<br />
ice cream counter.<br />
Alpine Slide is famous for its<br />
Olympic-style bobsleds which<br />
are in season all year long. Snow<br />
is never needed since the sleds<br />
have teflon runners and ballbearing<br />
wheels, and the quartermile<br />
long tracks with banked<br />
turns and long straightaways are<br />
cement.<br />
Riders control their own<br />
speed with the brake, and unlike<br />
any amusement park ride, each<br />
Alpine Slide<br />
trip down is a completely unique<br />
and interactive experience. Lean<br />
into each turn and go into a tuck<br />
through straightaways to experience<br />
what it’s like to be an Olympic<br />
bobsledder, or use the brake<br />
to go slow and soak in views of<br />
the lake and mountains.<br />
For a relaxing change of pace<br />
enjoy a round on the Putt ‘N<br />
Around miniature golf course,<br />
laden with rolling greens, water<br />
hazards, even penalty-stroke<br />
“sand traps.”<br />
Then for more fast fun, ride<br />
the Putt ‘N Around Go-Karts,<br />
each equipped with 5.5 horsepower<br />
Honda motors and an<br />
array of safety features including<br />
three-point harness restraints,<br />
hydraulic disk brakes, rack and<br />
pinion steering and padded steering<br />
wheels. The tire-lined track<br />
sports hair pin and high banked<br />
turns as riders circle under the<br />
pines at 7,000 foot elevation. IER<br />
Alpine Slide is on Big Bear Blvd. in Big Bear, 1/4 mile west<br />
of the Village shopping area, home to 60 specialty stores.<br />
