Located in Glen Helen Regional Park, this is the largest outdoor amphitheater in the United States, with a capacity of over 65,000 in the seats and on the lawn combined. This extremely popular Southern California venue was sadly corporately renamed in the 1990's and again a few years ago and surely it'll be renamed again in the future.

This idiotically renamed stadium (Arrowhead Credit Union Park) opened in 1996 as Stampede Stadium, named for the San Bernardino Stampede, the city's minor league baseball team that just moved from Fiscali Field. Today (2006 season) the team is called the Inland Empire 66ers and is the California League Single A affiliate of the Seattle Mariners. The field is also home to the California State University San Bernardino Coyotes baseball team.

Al Hougton Stadium
This 8,400 seat stadium is located at the Little League Baseball Western Region Headquarters Complex, annual site of Little League Baseball's Western Regional Tournament as well as local baseball and baseball camps. The complex has one more field and dormitories for camps and for all the kids who come to play in the tournament each year (so they can stay together as a team onsite just like they would in Williamsport, Pennslvania at the Little League World Series.)

San Bernardino International Airport
With a name including "International Airport" one might think you can catch a flight out of here bound for various locations in the United States and maybe Mexico but nay, no commercial passenger services available. The airport, which used to be the Norton Air Force Base, today serves some cargo flights, general aviation, and houses planes of the United States Forest Service.
"This base began before the war as Municipal Airport, San Bernardino under Army Air Corps jurisdiction. During the summer of 1941 it became a training base to meet the needs of the 30,000 Pilot Training Program. In December 1941, within days after the attack on Pearl Harbor, combat-ready fighter planes arrived to protect the Los Angeles area from enemy attack. In July 1942 the airport was renamed San Bernardino Army Air Field and the San Bernardino Air Depot was established there. The facility's primary function was the repair and maintenance of aircraft. During the war the Air Transport Command used the field and in 1943 maintenance operations for gas turbine engines were added. This lead, after the war, to the base becoming one of three major maintenance facilities for jet engines. The base was tranferred to the newly formed US Air Force in 1948 and in 1950 was renamed Norton Air Force Base after Captain Leland Norton, a World War II bomber pilot who, on his 16th mission over Germany, ordered the crew of his crippled plane to bail out just before perishing with the craft. Operations expanded to provide maintenance, storage, and logistics support for various missile programs. In 1966, Norton AFB became the home for the 63rd Military Airlift Wing, providing airlift and food services to worldwide air and ground combat units. Headquarters for the Aerospace Audiovisual Services (AAVS) was also established at Norton AFB in 1966 to provide audiovisual services to the Air Force and all Department of Defense agencies. Norton AFB also has housed numerous tenant organizations, including Air Force Inspection and Safety Center Headquarters; Air Force Audit Agency Headquarters; Military Airlift Command Non-Commissioned Officer Academy-West; and Headquarters and Ballistic Missile Organization (ESI, 1982). The base was selected for closure by the Base Realignment and Closure Commission in 1988 and closed on March 31, 1994, however Detachment 10, Ballistic Missile Organization, remained until September 1995 ...
