The Santa Monica Police Activities League (PAL) and more than 100 California Police Activities League (CAL-PAL) chapters visited the Santa Monica Pier's Pacific Park on Wednesday for the 8th Annual PALpalooza.

More than 350 kids received a free, fun-filled back-to-school treat with Pacific Park’s 12 exciting rides, 18 midways games and a variety of food selections from the oceanfront food court including hot dogs, hamburgers, French fries, soft drinks, and juice.

The children also enjoyed a variety of desserts including cotton candy, popcorn, and ice cream. The Santa Monica PAL is Pacific Park’s primary charitable organization on the Westside.

The two-acre amusement park donated all the food, games and rides for PALpalooza.
