What We Could Not Verify
- OHV Safety Week, November 14 to 22, 2026, is listed on the State OHV home page; we read no program or locations. It is not a San Diego event by itself. State Parks can confirm.
- The Ocotillo Wells SVRA 50th Anniversary Celebration 2026 page showed no text; its date is not confirmed. Ocotillo Wells SVRA can confirm.
- Sound check dates at Ocotillo Wells: the page said no tests are scheduled at this time (read 2026-10-23).
- Nonresident OHV permits for the following year go on sale in October; the 2027 price is not confirmed.
- The counts above show zero because no dated event passed our checks, not because none exist.
