Just Added: Skateparks
We have just finished adding hundreds of skateparks from all around the United States. Skateboarding is tons of fun and can be enjoyed alone or with a group of friends. There is at least one skatepark in most major cities, so you would be hard pressed not to find one nearby.
Find the nearest skatepark in your area.
Just Added: Golf Driving Ranges
We have just finished adding over 1,300 golf driving ranges around the United States. If you want to play some golf without the commitment of 18 holes, head out to your nearest driving range and hit a few balls. Driving ranges are usually a part of a larger golf course and allow you to practice your golf swing. If you’re on a date guys, score some points by helping your date with her form.
Find the nearest driving range in your area.
Another great idea provided by Eugene (last idea was the psychic’s database)! Dog parks are a fantastic place to meet like minded individuals. They are also a fun place to go if both you and your date own a dog. You can find the activity under “Goofy Stuff” in the Fun theme or go straight to the activity through the drop down menu.
Also, if we missed your favorite dog park, please let us know so that we can add it.

What a productive weekend!
We have just completed our city guide for the Santa Barbara area. The guide covers things to do, nightlife, places to eat, and dating in the city. You can also use our date or local planning interface to find tons of other things to do in and around Santa Barbara.
We have also finished making some major changes to our website which should drastically improve your experience. Browsing through activities and retrieving results based on your zip should now be 80% faster than before. If you experience any issues, please let us know and we’ll fix it right away.
Eugene, our brilliant software engineer, is working hard to make your experience at PlanJam a lot more enjoyable (it makes him happy). With the addition of so many new entries, we have noticed a slight lag while retrieving activities. The new method utilizes JSON and will be significantly faster, especially if you’re joining us from a slower connection.
If all goes well, we should have everything up and running by the beginning of next week.
Just Added: Performing Arts
Adding a little drama to your relationship can actually be good thing.
Performing arts is a wide field that often comes as a surprise to those without much experience. We may be spoiled by the computer generated graphics of the modern motion picture, but the stage still retains its visceral appeal and it’s magic.
Find your nearest Performing Arts Theater.
Just Added: Skydiving
If you’ve always wanted to go skydiving but never thought there was a location near you (those of us living in the city), you’ll be surprised. There is at least one or two drop zones within 50 miles of most metropolitan cities around the United States.
Skydiving is an exhilarating experience and not as expensive as you would think (about $100/jump). Your first jump will be tandem (with a professional instructor) so you’ll have nothing to worry about…unless you’re afraid of heights.
Don’t forget to come back and let us know how you’re experience was.

Just Added: Hookah Bars
Despite all the recent health claims made against smoking hookah, it’s one of my all time favorite things to do. It’s a great opportunity to just hang out with friends, or your significant other, and just chat. We went ahead and added a good amount of hookah bars from all over the US…so if you haven’t been, now’s your chance.
Just a reminder… although we try our best to list as many hookah bars as we can, we tend to miss some from time to time. So if we don’t have your favorite spot listed, or you want to comment on your experience (positive or negative), please let us know.
Find the nearest hookah bar in your area.
Just Added: Psychic Directory
We just completed our psychic (or spiritual advisor) directory for the United States…so if you believe in them, or just want to be entertained, now you can find one. A lot of people have been asking why we would include going to a psychic as an activity. Our response…why not? (for some odd reason, they didn’t mention a thing about our UFO sighting grounds or haunted locations).
You can find the nearest psychic in your neighborhood by visiting the info page and entering your zip code.
Just Added: Bungee Jumping
Have you been looking for somewhere to go bungee jumping? It’s not for everyone, but for those of you who enjoy the thrill, we have done our best to compile a list of bungee jump locations around the United States. The list isn’t exhaustive, so if you know of a spot that we missed, we would love to hear about it.
To find the nearest bungee jumping location, visit the info page and enter your zip code.
